EE COMMEND ATI OKS. 



The following favorable notices of this work have been received from those who have 
examined the manuscript, or the first few pages in print : 

From Ret. E. P. Rogers, D. D., Pastor of South Reformed Church, New York. 

"Jfoyl*, 1877. 
" Having examined, at some length, the plan of the ' Biblical and Homiletical Index,' prepared by 
the Rev. J. H. Pettingell, I cordially approve of the same, and think that, for arrangement of texts and 
topics, for comprehensiveness of reference to ancient and modern authors and their works, and for the 
completeness with which the special design of such a work is carried out, it is the best of the kind which 
has come under my notice, and cannot faU to be both popular and useful, on a very extensive scale. 

"E. P. ROGEES." 

From Rev. Benjamin N. Maetin, S. T. D., L. H. D., Professor in the University of New York. 

" Mcuy 18, 1877. 
" The ' Textual and Topical Index,' by Rev. J. H. Pettingell, strikes me as a work which is likely to 
be extensively useful. It will contribute to the study of the Scriptures on the one hand, and to that of 
our ample and valuable literature of homiletica on the other. Its admirable plan could hardly be 
improved, nor could its execution be confided to more faithful or more competent hands. I earnestly 
hope that it may find the appreciation which I am sure it deserves. 

"Benjamin N. Martin." 

From Rev. L. H. Atwater, D. D., Professor Princeton College. 

" Peinokton, N. J., September 18, 1877. 
" I fully concur with the views expressed by Prof. Martin in regard to the ' Textual and Topical 
Index,' by Rev. J. H. Pettingell. 

"L. H. Atwater." 

From Rev. Talbot W. Chambers, D. D. 

"NbwToek, .Jfaj/ 18, 1877. 
"I have been very much pleased with such examination as I was able to make of Rev. Mr. Pettingell's 
' Biblical and Homiletical Index.' The work seems to have been very carefully prepared, and to be as 
complete as the limits of a volume designed for extensive circulation would allow. The book fills a place 
which, 80 far, has not been occupied with anything like so much fullness and accuracy, and hence gives 
promise of great and lasting usefulness. 

"Talbot W. Chambers." 

Fr<ym Rev. J. A. Lansing, D. D. 

" Brooklyn, May 23, 1877. 
" Rev. J. H. I'ettingell — My dear Sir : I have been exceedingly interested in the examination of 
your ' Biblical and Homiletical Index.' I have looked carefully through it, and the more I learn of it the 
more thoroughly satisfied I am that it is a valuable work, which cannot fail to command a wide circula- 
tion, especially among the clergy. It is to be, I venture to predict, the vade-mecwm of ministers of the 
Gospel long after its painstaking author shall have rested from his labors. In all the range of manuscripts 
that have come before me as Secretary of our Board of Publication, I am free to say I know of none 
that I can more heartily indorse and commend. I am no enthusiast, but it is my deliberate conviction 
that your ' Index ' only needs to be known in order to be welcomed to a place in the hbrary of every 
minister of the Gospel. I shall be on the lookout for a copy as soon as it is pubUshed. 

" Very cordially yours, 

" J. A. Lansing."

RECOMMENDATIONS. 



From Rev. J. H. A. Bomberger, D. D., Freaideni and Professor of Tlteohgy (German) Reforrmtd Church 

Theological Seminary. 

" Feeelasd, Pa., July 13, 1577. 
"All students of gospel truth, and especially all who study with reference to public instruction, have 
repeatedly felt the need of a book or an index which would at once direct them to the best literature on 
the subject under consideration. They may remember having seen a sermon, dissertation, or lecture 
upon it somewhere, but cannot recall the name of the author or the work. Recently we have been per- 
mitted to examine some pages of the manuscript of a work designed to meet this want. Its title will be 
' A Biblical and Homiletical Index, or Hand-book of Texts, Themes, and Authors, embracing 20,000 
Citations of Scripture Texts and of Discourses founded thereon, by Rev. J. H. Pettingell, of New York 
City.' The nature of the work and the care which appears to have been given to its preparation, togeth- 
er with its supply of what has long been desired, must secure for the work a wide circulation. 

•'J. H. A. BOMBEEGEE." 

" I fully concur with the above. 

" George 'Wolff, D. D., 
'■'■Pastor of the German Reformed Church, Myersioxcn, Pa." 

From Rev. William F. Warren, D. D., President of Boston University. 

" Boston UimrEiisiTT, Boston, September 6, 1877. 
" Only a bold man would ever have undertaken so laborious a task, only au industrious one could 
ever have executed it. From the specimen-pages submitted, I judge that the completed work will abun- 
dantly, not only justify the outlay of the purchaser, but also the far greater expenditure of the author. 
" For Professors of Homiletics it will be particiilarly convenient. 

" WuiiAM F. Warrex." 

From Rev. Leonard Bacon, D. D., LL. D. 

" New Havek, Co>-if., September 6, 1S77. 
" The specimen-pages which I have seen of Mr. Pettingell's ' Homiletical Index ' are evidence that his 
work, in plan and execution, will be far superior to any other of its class. 

" Books designed to help the ' sermonizer ' are not always useful to the preacher. This book is of 
another sort. Instead of giving ' plans ' or ' skeletons,' it gives suggestions, which may put the student 
upon thinking for himself, and may sometimes guide his thinking. 

" Leonard Bacon." 

From Ret. Howard Crosby, D. D., Chancellor of the University of Xew York. 

"116 East Neteteenth Sieeet, New Toek, September 7, 1S77. 
" Dear Sir and Brother : Severe sickness in my family forbids my giving your plan a long consider- 
ation ; but it strikes me the ' Homiletical Index ' will be a very useful work. 

" Yours truly, 

" Howard Crosby." 

FVom Rev. Dr. A. L. Chapin, President of Beloit College. 

■ "BELorr College, September 7, 1577. 
" From a few specimen-pages that have come vmder my eye, I judge that the ' Homiletical Index,' 
prepared by Rev. J. H. Pettingell, will meet a very general want of ministers and students of the Bible. 
The well-devised plan of the work seems to have been accurately and faithfully carried out, so as to 
bring the texts of Scripture, the topics they suggest, and the names of the best writers on those topics, 
together, in form exceedingly convenient for reference. When its merits are understood, I am confident 
the book will be welcomed as a time-saving and labor-saving help by all who are called to expound the 
Word of God. 

"A. L. Chapin." 

From Rev. Drs. D. B. Coe, A. H. Clapp, and C. P. Bush. 

"New Toek, September 8, 1S77. 

" I have carefully examined the ' Homiletical Index,' prepared by Rev. J. H. Pettingell, and I con- 
sider it the best work of its kind with which I am acquainted. I doubt not that very many ministers of 
the Gospel and other students of the Bible, who have felt the need of such a manual, will gladly avail 
themselves of the aid it is well fitted to afford. It will greatly facilitate the study of the Scriptures, and 
enhance the value of every other volume to which it refers. 

"D. B. CoE, Sec. of Am. Home Miss. Soc." 

" I cordially concur in the favorable opinion of Mr. Pettingell's ' Index ' expressed by Dr. Coe. 

" A. H. Clapp, Sec. of Am. Home Miss. Soc." 

" I also concur in the opinion expressed by Dr. Coe.

RECOMMENDATIONS. 



M-om Rev. A. Hovet, D. D., President of Newton Theological Institute. 

" Newton Centeb, September 9, 1877. 
" Rev. J. H. Pettingell — Bear Sir: From the plan of your 'Homiletical Index,' and the execution 
of the pages sent to me, I should think it would prove a very convenient and useful work for students 
of the Scriptures, for ministers, and also for expositors. If rightly used it will do much good. 

" Very truly yours, 

"Alvah Hovkt." 

From Rev. E. F. Burr, D. D., Author of "Hcee Cmlum," etc. 

" Lyme, Conn., September 11, 1877. 
" Rev. J. H. Pettingell — My dear Sir : As nearly as I can judge from the specimen-pages sent me, 
your work will make a valuable addition to my library and to that of many other Christian ministers. 
" Very fraternally, 

"E.F.BuKR." 

From Rev. Noah Porter, D. D., LL. D., President of Yale College. 

" Yale Coilkge, New Haven, Conn., September 11, 1877. 
" Rev. J. H. Pettingell — My dear Sir: The ' Homiletical Index ' which you propose to publish will 
prove a valuable aid to preachers and students of the Scriptures, and pulpit literature. 

"Noah Porter." 

From Rev. H. M. Dexter, D. D., Editor of the " Congregationalist." 

" Boston, September 18, 1877. 
"Rev. J. H. Pettingell — My dear Brother: I have long felt that indexing is the great need of our 
time, in order that the aifluence of thought on various subjects, which is actually within reach of the 
student, may become intelligently and practically so. What Poole's ' Index ' has done, and, in its new 
auspices, is much more effectually to do, in the department of periodical literature, your happily-con- 
ceived and patiently-executed work will do in the sphere of Homiletics. You have only to make it known 
to win for it a welcome. 

" Faithfully, 

" Henry M. Dexter." 

From Rev. Lyman Abbott, Editor of " Christian Union.'''' 

" Cobnwall-on-the-Hcdson, September 14, 1877. 
" My dear Mr. Pettingell : I have looked over the sheets which you have sent me of your ' Homi- 
letical Index.' The plan strikes me as excellent, and, so far as I can judge, the execution good. Ser- 
mons are the garnered grain from large harvest-fields by thoughtful and earnest writers. Published 
sermons are the sifted grain, generally, though not always, the best. These have been hitherto practi- 
cally inaccessible — like a valuable library kept under lock. You propose to give us the key to it ; and I 
think the ministry will generally thank you for what must have been an arduous labor, and a labor of love. 

" Yours sincerely, 

" Lyman Abbott." 

From. Rev. T. Db Witt Talmage, D. D. 

"Beookltn, September 19, 1877. 
" Mr. Pettingell : Your ' Homiletical Index ' must be suggestive and largely useful. It will be help- 
ful to ministers, Sabbath-school teachers, and all those who want to keep abreast with the grand march 
of religious enterprise. May great success attend your undertaking ! 

" T. De Witt Talmage." 

From Rev. C. S. Robinson, D. D. 

" 57 East FiFTY-potrETH Steeet, New Toee, September 19, 1877. 
" My dear Sir :....! have kept such an index for twenty years in my big ' student's Bible.' My 
whole library is so indexed, and I have found it of greatest use. Your idea is excellent, and your book 
will be a success. 

" In great haste, yours truly, 

" Charles S. Robinson." 

From Rev. Z. M. Humphrey, D. D., Professor in Lane Theological Seminary, Ohio. 

" Lane Seminary, Cincinnati, September 21, 1877. 
" Dear Sir : I have examined with interest your scheme for a ' Homiletical Index.' It is very care- 
fully worked out, and must be of great value to all who are in the habit of frequently consulting the 
homiletical literature of the day. 

" Very truly yours, 

" Z. M. Humphrey."

RECOMMENDATIONS. 



From Rev. J. R. Herrick, D. D. 

"SoDTB Haolst, Mass., SepUmbtr, 16T7. 
" The author of ' Homiletical Index ' gives proof in his work of having expended much labor upon it 
He has condensed into this one volume an immense amount of information, which will be a great eaving 
of time to those who desire to avail themselves of such a help. The plan is to be commended. 

"J. R. Herbick." 

From Rev. P. H. Fowler. 

" UncA, N. T., September 26, 1ST7. 
"Rev. and dear Sir: . . . The object and the plan of the work, and the sample of its execution, 
impressed me very favorably ; and I am sure that it must be helpful, especially to all writers in their 
investigations of subjects and preparation of sermons. 

" Yours very truly, 

" P. H. Fowler." 

From Rev. J. T. Dtirtea, D. D. 

" Bbookltk, N. T., Odobtr 4, 1877. 
" Mt dear Sir : I have had occasion, in the critical study of the Hebrew and Greek Testaments, to 
look up the exegesis given by eminent men, not commentators, in their sermons. I may often have 
occasion to perform the same task again, and shall consider your ' Homiletical Index ' an invaluable aid. 

" Yours most truly, 

" Joseph T. Dcrtea." 

From Prop. George Mooar, D. D. 

" Pacific Theoloqicai. Semixart, Oaklakd, Cal., October 1, 1877. 
" Rev. J. H. Pettingell — Bear Sir : I have examined the specimen-pages of your ' Homiletical 
Index.' K you have carried out the whole work on the plan and with the coruprehensiveness shown in 
these pages, you have certainly made a very important, as well as unique, contribution to theological 
studies. Let me congratulate you on publishing a book which must inevitably be prized by hundreds of 
Biblical scholars, as well as help multitudes of preachers to magnify their office. 

" George Mooar." 

From Prof. E. P. Barrows, D. D. 

"Obeblin, O., Xovember 20, 1S77. 
" Rev. J. H. Pettingell — Dear Sir : Your note and specimen-sheets have lain on my table for some 
time, but I have hitherto not found it convenient to give them an examination. 

" To test the ' Homiletical Index,' I took down from my library four works — DwighVs Theology, 
BarroiiPs Works, Howe's Works, and SoutKs Sermons. I selected from the first, ' The Soul of Man not 
Material ; ' from the second, ' The Being of God Proved from the Frame of Xature ; ' from the third, 
' Afflictions, Improvement of, Desired ; ' from the fourth, ' The Creation of Man in God's Image.' I readily 
found the first three discourses, but had difficulty with the fourth, owing to a defect in the ' General 
Index' appended to the last volume. My conclusion is that your 'Homiletical Index' will be a valuable 
guide to special topics, where the indexes are tolerably full and accurate.* 

" It will, as you suggest, help weak heads to ' pirate ; ' but it will also help strong and independent 
thinkers to enrich their minds with the thoughts of other men. 

" Very truly yours, 

" E. P. Barrows." 

* N. B. — It should be observed that it is not the design of the "Alphabetical Topical Index " to refer directly to authors 
and their works, hut simply to the " Textual Index," to which it is complementary, where the references are more definite. 
Let the reader, therefore, on finding any theme in the "Alphabetical Index," not expect to find his references here, but let 
him turn to the text in the other " Index" for them. It is hoped that the references there are sufficiently expUcit. To have 
given them more at length — referring to page, or even to volume, excepting where there are several— would have added 
much to the size and complexity of this work, without any corresponding advantage; for every work has its own table of 
contents. But, what is more, it would often have tended only to confusion, as no uniformity as to paging, nor as to the 
number of volumes, is observed in the various editions of these works.

PREFACE. 



The design and use of this manual will be sufficiently obvious without any 
explanation. It is intended to supply a need which every Bible scholar has 
felt, and which, it is believed, has never been adequately met. 

The undertaking had its origin in the personal wants of the compiler. He 
found early in his ministry, after having collected a considerable number of 
volumes of a homiletieal character, that they were likely to prove of little ser- 
vice to him simply for the want of an appropriate index to them as a whole. 
The collection seemed to him like a vast cyclopaedia of sacred literature fuU of 
valuable thoughts, suggestions, and illustrations, but without any such classi- 
fication and arrangement of text and topics as to enable him to find what he 
might want when he wanted it, without costing him more time and trouble 
than it would be worth. 

He endeavored to supply this lack by making an index of his study-Bible 

to whatever he had in his library touching any particular portion of Scripture. 

Over against every such passage, in the margin, he made a note of reference 

to the volume in which the discourse, comment, or illustration might be found. 

This he continued to do as new volumes were added, until the whole Bible 

from Genesis to Revelation was filled with such references, and had become 

practically an immense homiletieal commentary in a condensed form ; for he 

had only to turn to any passage in his study-Bible to learn just what he had 

in his library on that passage, and in which of its many scattered volumes he 

might find it. 

This plan has proved so convenient to himself, that he has thought he

PREFACE. 



might render a valuable service to his ministerial brethren and to others by 
the preparation of a manual which should embrace all the more important 
passages of Scripture, and in which the original plan should be so extended 
as to make it a key or index not only to every man's own collection, but to 
homiletical literature in general. 

To give it greater completeness and value, he has added — what could not 
be done in the margin of a Bible — a separate alphabetical arrangement of these 
and many other themes and topics ; in this way supplying a topical index of 
the Scriptures, with this advantage over any other he had ever seen, that the 
topics are more specific and definite, and not only the texts on which they are 
founded are quoted, but the authors who have used them under their various 
phases are also cited. 

It was proposed, in the outset, to embrace the whole range of homiletical 
literature, ancient and modern, quoting in full every Scripture passage used as 
a text for a discourse, and also, in order to give the compilation greater com- 
pleteness, to prefix to every chapter, book, and other larger divisions of the 
Bible, a carefully-selected list of commentaries, notes, lectures, and other 
works on that portion, and, to the whole, a list of works on the Bible in gen- 
eral. But, after having collected and arranged a large part of the material, it 
became evident that to fully carry out this design would so increase the size of 
the volume as to put it out of the reach of the great majority of those for whom 
it was intended, and practically defeat, in a great measure, the object of its 
preparation. It seemed better, both to the compiler and to judicious clerical 
brethren who kindly gave their advice, to sacrifice completeness to utility, and 
to throw aside much that had been laboriously gathered, to strike out entirely 
the prefatory lists of general and expository works, and to exclude from the 
index references to discourses ephemeral in their character or form, as well as 
those that are rare and difficult to be found.* 

* A somewhat full though condensed list of Biblical works in general, embracing many hundred 
names and titles, for which no place was found in the body of this work, may be found in Appendix 
rV. at the end of the volume.

PREFACE. 



There are many himdreds of volumes of good old sermons reposing in dust 
and obscurity upon the shelves of our larger public libraries, and only to be 
found there, or, by chance, occasionally in private collections that have come 
down as heirlooms from a former generation. The memory of the authors of 
many of these volumes is still fragrant in the Church, but the preachers them- 
selves have fulfilled their mission and gone to their reward. " They rest from 
their labors, and their works do follow them." It has been thought best to 
refer to only such of them as are of such extraordinary merit as to be regarded 
as standard works and of permanent value, and are, therefore, still in the 
market. 

It has not been thought worth while to cumber the volume with references 
to sketches and skeletons of sermons and fragmentary discourses — excepting in 
a few instances where they are bound up with discourses of permanent value. 
Nor does the plan of this index admit of noticing sermons destitute of topical 
captions, or of essays which were evidently first preached as sermons and after- 
. ward printed under various fanciful captions with their texts suppressed. As 
both texts and themes are necessary to a full reference in both of these indexes, 
the compiler has hardly felt warranted, excepting in rare instances, to supply 
the omission, and for this reason many works of real value have necessarily 
been left out. 

But, within these limits, the material is so vast and superabundant that the 
compiler has found difficulty in satisfying even himself in his selections, and 
he can hardly hope that his judgment will always be approved by all who may 
consult these indexes. They will, sometimes, doubtless, look in vain for a 
notice of the writings of some author to which they are particularly partial — 
possibly their own valuable discourses ; and they will occasionally find, per- 
haps, the names of those they do not especially esteem. But the compiler will 
be disappointed if this manual does not prove to be what he has honestly en- 
deavored to make it, a valuable assistance to the great majority of those for 

whom it is intended. It will be found to contain some twenty thousand cita- 

15 



PREFACE. 



tions from the writings of a thousand representative men of all Christian 
denominations of the past and present day, whose works are now in circulation, 
and to emhrace all the more salient texts of Scripture in the whole Bible, and 
almost every imaginable theme in all its various aspects and varying methods 
of treatment suggested by them. A list of texts cited from the Old Testament 
by writers and speakers in the New has been added in an appendix as an 
appropriate close to the Textual Index of the First Pa/rt. 

The Second Part, containing the Topical Index with its appendices, it is 
hoped will be found equally valuable with the First. It presents all the topics 
and themes of the Textual Index under an alphabetical arrangement, referring 
again to the texts and authors more briefly, making them complementary to 
each other, and gives also many other names and titles of books without texts, 
and lists of classified texts without names of authors — as in the Appendix m. — 
for which no place could be found in the First Part, which may be useful for 
reference. 

It is hoped this hand-book will be found convenient and helpful to clergy- 
men and other Bible scholars in a variety of ways : by serving as a key to their 
own several libraries as well as to the larger public theological libraries ; by 
calling their attention to much valuable material that would otherwise escape 
their notice ; by suggesting texts and themes for discourse ; by enabling them to 
find, without too much trouble, what others have thought and said on any text 
or topic they may be considering. If such writings are of any value, if it is 
worth while to have books and libraries at all, it is important that, like the 
tools of the mechanic, one should be able to lay his hands on them when he 
wants to use them. The themes set over against the texts in the Textual Index 
are often no mean commentary of themselves, and it is always a profitable study 
to see what various themes different writers draw out of the same text, and in 
what a variety of ways they discuss the same tnith. 

It has been no part of the compiler's purpose to afford " aid and comfort "

to pirates ; and if it should be thought that this compilation may prove too 
convenient to such preachers as deal in the ideas of other men, it should be 
remembered that it will prove equally convenient for those who would detect 
their plagiarisms. 

"Works of this sort are very liable to errors of the pen and the press ; the 
compiler hardly dares to hope that this volume will be entirely free from them ; 
but great pains have been taken to have his references correct. He has verified 
them as far as practicable, and, in so doing, has corrected numerous errors in 
the volumes to which he refers. Sometimes the text and the theme seem to 
have very little relation to each other. When the author has evidently by mis- 
take quoted the wrong passage, the right one has been given, but it should be 
remarked that this is the way that some men have of showing their genius — by 
traveling outside of the beaten track, looking up surprising analogies, and 
bringing things new rather than old out of the treasury of God's Word. But 
in no ease does the compiler assume the responsibility of deciding what is new 
but not true, and what is true but not new, in this compilation ; every one must 
decide for himself. 

The idea of publishing a book of references to other men's writings is not 
very flattering to one's pride of authorship. It certainly would have cost him 
less labor to have prepared an original work much larger than this ; but he 
might have been less profitably engaged. The door-opener in the house of God 
need not despise his duty. The guide-hoard, even, may fulfill an important 
office. It has been a privilege and a pleasure to him to have his labors so 
directly connected with the Word of God. It has given him higher views of 
the richness and overflowing fullness of the Scriptures. The good woman who 
exclaimed, " The Bible is a wonderful book for texts ! " discovered a fact that 
has continually forced itself upon the mind of the compiler as he has turned 
over the leaves of this inexhaustible treasury of Divine knowledge day after 
day, and observed how great the variety of its teachings, and how wonderfully 
adapted to every phase of human want. He has seemed to be gathering dia-

mine where they were sparkling and shining on every side ; or, to use a Script- 
ure figure, he has been like one drawing " water with joy from the wells of 
salvation." He has found both pleasure and spiritual profit in his labor ; and 
now, if he may hope that it will be of service to others, in bringing them into 
a more intimate acquaintance with the Word of God, or in any way aiding his 
brethren in the ministry in unfoldiug its precious truths to their people, and in 
more successfully discharging the duties of their high calling, he will be more 
than satisfied.

INTRODUCTION. 

By Prof. GEORGE E. DAT. 

The manifest value of this extensive and in some of its features entirely 
novel Homiletical Index, for bibliographical purposes, is too plain to need illus- 
tration. As a combined record of the variety of subjects treated of in Christian 
pulpits in past times and in our own day, and of the doctrines and duties 
which the several verses of the books of the Bible have been thought or made 
to teach, we have nothing in the English language to compare with it. It 
may be safely trusted to win its own way and to hold its own place, with 
the certainty of grateful recognition on the part of aU who know the value 
of bibHographical helps. 

To those engaged in the work of the Christian ministry, the special service 
which this elaborate index will be able to render, will depend, it is evident, upon 
the manner in which it is used, and the principles adopted and conscientiously 
acted on, in relation to the published sermons of others. On both of these 
points the following observations are offered : 

The preaching of the Gospel, or, more exactly, the Gospel as preached, is 
the message itself plus the preacher. In him and his work, if he is worthy, 
a real addition is designed to be made to the power of the glad tidings. He is 
appointed to be a witness for the truth, as one renewed by it himself ; to restate 
it as it commends itself to his understanding, now enlightened from above ; to 
connect it with existing phases of thought and feeling, in ways best fitted to win 
the hearts of men ; to clothe it with the force and tenderness of sanctified 
emotion ; and, finally, to adorn it with the beauty of a saintly life, in the 
presence of which the consciences of men shall be constrained to recognize in 
him the undoubted bearer of a Divine message. This work of the preacher, 
ever giving freshness to the Gospel, is the standing provision made by oxir Lord 
to guard against an enfeebling and fatal monotony ; and so it comes to pass that 
they who have heard the glad tidings a thousand times flock, with an interest 
which never tires, to hear the Word preached by those who verify their calling. 

21 



INTRODUCTION. 



If this is a true conception of the rationale of preaching, the jpremrvation 
of the individuality of the jp^ea^her, within certain limits, becomes a matter of 
the highest importance. These limits define themselves the moment we distin- 
guish between the true ideal of an individual, or what he might and should be 
in virtue of his mental endowments, combined with his relations and circum- 
stances, on the one hand, and the impeifect realization of all this in his actual 
character, on the other. It is in the first of these senses that he has the right 
to be and is bound to be himself and no one else. It is in this sense that he 
stands alone in the world, with a make-up of qualities which, in just the same 
proportion and shading, no one else ever had or ever will have. True progress 
and growth depend upon a man's resolute acceptance of this. It is no lack of 
modesty, but may be a striking exhibition of it, for a preacher to regard himself 
as designed to be different in some respects from any who have preceded him — 
stronger, perhaps, than some in one or more directions, weaker certainly in 
many others ; but, whether sti'onger or weaker, appointed to be himself, and 
as himself to serve the Lord in the ministry of His "Word. The true ideal of 
himself may be imperfectly developed, and may be marred with defects and 
faults. These it is his business to correct, but yet always in his own. line of 
things, and not in that of another, so that the result, steadily aimed at, shall be 
the most perfect realization possible of just the ideal which he was designed to 
exhibit, and the manifestation to the world of just the preacher which he was 
called to become. Quite possibly this may in some cases involve the existence 
of noticeable peculiarities, or even eccentricities ; but, if these are the honest 
outworking of himself, and are not put on at the bidding of vanity, or for the 
sake of oddity, they will do no harm, and may even add to his power. It is 
only when he mistakes his deficiencies and faults for excellences that the result 
is evil. 

What, now, is the bearing of this upon the preacher's study of the sermons 
of others ? First, it is evident that none of these productions, however excel- 
lent, are or can be simply models to be copied or reproduced by himself. Each 
of them, in conception, in arrangement, and in a style or mode of expression 
which reveals the subtile mental associations by which even the selection and 
collocation of words were determined, is a photograph of the writer or speaker, 
and of no one else. Chalmers is Chalmers and Bushnell is Bushnell in every 
thought and sentence and word. To attempt to change ourselves into either 
of them, or into any one else, is only to put on a mask. Success is simply 
impossible. What is strictly personal must ever remain such. We might as 
well attempt to wear the countenance of another as to borrow the peculiarities 



INTRODUOTION". 



of his mental structure, or to clotlie our conceptions with forms of thought and 
expression which belong properly to him. The preacher who will be true to 
himseM must respect the individuality of others and respect his own. He 
must be willing to say that for him, as a steward of the mysteries of God, 
there is and can be no absolute and exact model. At aU hazards he must be 
himself. 

There is another aspect of the case which confirms this view. The great 
preachers of the past had before them their own age, its wants, its dangers, its 
special associations of thought and feeling. The great preachers of our time, 
also, have and must have their sermons, if they are to be effective, moulded 
and fashioned with distinct reference to the community to which they are 
addressed. If we had the audiences of Chrysostom or Howe or Baxter to 
preach to, many things might be properly said which would now come without 
force or perhaps repel. To every age, and even to every community, the 
Gospel needs to be preached with a very special and distinct adaptation to its 
position and wants. Here is the place for the individuality of the preacher. 
As rhetorical or homiletical compositions, the discourses of Saurin or Mason 
may occupy an incomparably higher place than any which he can hope to 
prepare ; but, in the well-considered application of the doctrines and precepts of 
the Gospel to the existing state of his congregation, every pastor can do what 
none else can. There is many a humble parish in which greater and better ser- 
mons, /<?;' that parish, are preached than any discourses of Massillon or Bossuet. 

Closely connected with this is the preservation of the preacher's produc- 
ti/oity. It is only thinking that produces thought. The conceptions, or even 
the facts, which come into a man's mind only by communication from others, 
and which remain there merely by the force of memory, are of compara- 
tively slight value. Of themselves they make a conglomerate, and nothing 
more. It is not till the mind brings them into combinations of its own, and 
sets them actively to work, that they become elements of power. Even the 
knowledge given by revelation, the grand germinant truths of the Bible, are no 
exception to this law. They are presented to the soul as vital forces, to be 
taken up into its processes of thought and feeling, and to become springs of 
intellectual and spiritual life. Thus used, pondered upon, developed, brought 
into new relations and applications, made factors for wider generalizations, they 
constantly contribute to the full knowledge, eirlr^vcocn^, of which the Apostle 
Paul speaks so highly, and to which he was ever seeking to elevate the early 
churches. I^othing to the preacher, therefore, can supply the place of honest 
production. The loss of it is death. If he sinks into a mere receiver of the 

23 



INTRODUCTION. 



thoughts of others, he becomes only a sponge, and no sponge ever became a 
sword to strike or a lance to pierce. 

There is a subtile law of sympathetic mental action, in virtue of which an 
orator who does his own thinking sets his hearers to think, not merely because 
he has thoughts, but because he really thinks his thoughts. His mental activ- 
ity, as such, communicates itself, over and above the thoughts he gives out. 
This is one secret of the greater power of extemporaneous over written dis- 
course, especially in the case of uncultivated audiences. They sympathize with 
the evident struggle of the speaker's mind, and by it are stirred up themselves 
to increased mental activity. 

The question now returns : Granted that the true preacher of the Gospel 
must hold fast his own individuality and guard his own productivity, what use 
can he make of the sermons of others ? It does not follow that, because he 
cannot consent to sink and be lost in other men, he cannot learn from them in 
various and important ways. Dr. J. "W". Alexander tells of a "Western painter 
who refused to see any of the productions of Eaphael or Yan Dyck, lest he 
should spoil his native manner, and then sarcastically adds : " He has certainly 
succeeded in avoiding all that one beholds in these great masters." In the 
highest and most perfect education of ourselves, the suggestive, stimulating, 
and corrective influence of other minds is constantly needed ; and when, in the 
case of the preacher, this influence is not left to the hap of the moment, but is 
deliberately, and on some fixed and just principles, made to contribute to his 
own growth, the result is of the highest value. The simple reading, no doubt, 
of great sermons has its place. It quickens the mind, suggests new thoughts, 
and elevates and purifies the taste. It cultivates a homiletical habit, and con- 
stantly tends to raise our ideal of excellence in pulpit discourse. It is said 
that Lord Chatham read some of Barrow's sermons twenty times for their vig- 
orous style. Still, the highest benefit to be derived from the homiletical use of 
the sermons of others comes in quite another way, to which the attention of 
young preachers cannot be too earnestly called, although it demands the exer- 
cise of some of the highest intellectual faculties. 

Briefly described, it is the process of independent discovery. The power 
which the preacher needs, most of all, is the power of moving men to holy pur- 
pose and endeavor through the presentation of the truth, and especially Chi-is- 
tian truth. This power of moving men all great preachers have possessed. In 
certain respects, they agree ; in others, they differ. But the worth of the dis- 
covery of that which is common to them all, and of what is peculiar to each, 
made by a thorough analysis of the elements which coiitrihuted to the grand result, 

24 



INTRODUCTION. 



cannot well be overstated. Such an analysis gives, as nothing else can, the 
secret of their success. If made by himself, it enables one to distinguish be- 
tween what is essential and what is merely accidental or personal. It saves him 
from a blind and indiscriminating imitation, and makes prominent and clear the 
methods and processes by which the maximum of his own power may be at- 
tained. In the strength of this knowledge, he may fearlessly go forward in the 
line of his own individuality, without being constantly hampered and overawed 
by arbitrary rhetorical rules. He cannot fail, also, in the same process, to find 
himself often sharply rebuked for his own leanness, or awkwardness, or unskill- 
fulness, and, if he is really in earnest, to be stirred up to more strenuous effort. 

It is sometimes laid down as a canon that none but the lest sermons should 
be read. This rule does not apply to the analytical examination just spoken of. 
If Matthew Henry's saying is true, that " a good sermon is one which does thee 
good," many discourses which have been applauded and admired must be pro- 
nounced to be fatally defective. They neither quicken thought, nor beget holy 
emotion, nor lead to stronger purposes of obedience to God and beneficence to 
man. Why is it that they fail ? Is it that they exhibit no evidence of any dis- 
tinct practical aim ? — that they are meagre in thought, barren in illustration, and 
deficient in logical coherence ? — that what is presented as truth is so little bib- 
lical and evangelical that the quickening Spirit cannot use it for the new life of 
the soul ? — that they have no adaptation to existing wants or even existing cir- 
cumstances ? — that they make no rational and honest appeal to the constitutional 
susceptibilities of men ? — that they lack the forms of expression which hold the 
attention and convey thought with clearness and force ? — or, most decisive of 
all, that they manifest no resolute earnestness, no genuine wrestling of Christian 
love in winning to Christ and leading to a better life ? It is one thing to feel 
and know that a sermon is poor, and quite another to understand in which of 
these particulars, or others which might be named, the secret of its weakness 
and unprofitableness lies. Among the discourses on the same text or subject, 
which will be repeatedly found referred to in these indexes, whoever succeeds 
in discovering why one of them does him no good, while another stirs and 
strengthens him, will have gone far in reaping the fruit of well-directed homi- 
letical study. 

This volume also puts it into the power of the young preacher to make a 
review of systematic theology under its practical relations. It is an evil inci- 
dental to the study of doctrinal theology, as taught in the schools, that the stu- 
dent becomes acquainted with it under modes of thought and expression re- 
quired by the conditions of a learned investigation. The method employed is 

25 



INTRODUCTION. 



necessarily scholastic, and incapable, m thisf<yrm, of being brought with much 
prospect of success into the pulpit. The ill-advised attempt to do so has occa- 
sioned, without doubt, no small part of the existing prejudice against doctrinal 
preaching. These same truths, presented by a skillful orator for the sake of a 
definite practical end, assume another form ; and a better review, therefore, of 
the loci conunmmes of theology, from the Being of God down to the Last Things, 
as given in a selection of the ablest discourses on these topics, by different 
preachers, it would be difficult to make. 

Of all methods of deriving help from the sermons of others, that of con- 
sulting them while preparing to speak or write on the same subject ourselves 
is least of all to be recommended. It almost inevitably becomes a snare. The 
difficulty is that the thoughts are given in a 'particular hoviiletical form, all 
ready for use at the moment. The same thoughts, met with at another time, 
and brought by our own minds into other connections, might be legitimately 
made a part of our mental furniture ; but here and now they subject us to great 
and manifold danger of losing the manly individuality which the Church has a 
right to expect in the preacher and his work. If consulted at all, in such a 
connection, it can only be safely done after such a thorough mastery of the 
subject, both as to matter and form, that the preacher can approach the sermons 
of others, not as a mendicant who needs to be fed, but as a counselor who 
comes to compare and consult. 

These hints might be greatly enlarged, but enough has been said to call the 
attention of every one who would make full proof of his ministiy to the im- 
portance of maintaining a rational confidence in himself. If he will not allow 
this volume to be degraded to the level of the so-called " Pulpit Helps," but will 
use it in ways consistent with his own independence and self-respect, he will be 
sure to find it capable of being made of great and manifold profit. The prog- 
ress of biblical exegesis, it is scarcely necessary to add, has sho^-n the subjects 
of some of the sermons referred to in this volume to have no legitimate con- 
nection with the texts on which they are founded, and even in some cases to be 
an entire perversion of their meaning. The progress of honiiletics, in the direc- 
tion of more distinctively biblical preaching, will lie, in part, in making the par- 
ticular form and shade of thought, in the connection in which the text is found, 
the theme of discourse. What unfailing variety and freshness such a treatment 
of the Bible is capable of giving to the preaching of the "W"ord, and what in- 
centives it furnishes to the thorough study of the original Scriptures, no one can 

fail to comprehend.

PART FIRST: TEXTUAL. 



mTRODUCTOET NOTE. 

There are many valuable works of a general character upon the Scriptures that cannot be 
noticed in this index ; nor wUl the limits to which it is restricted admit of repeated reference 
to many others of a serial character, covering considerable portions of the "Word of God, and 
touching upon a great number of passages in their course, like Kitto's " Daily Bible Illustra- 
tions," Jay's "Morning and Evening Exercises," the Bible readings of Chalmers, Gumming, 
and others. To quote the passages commented upon, with their several topics, would greatly 
increase the size of this volume. It has been thought suiBcient to refer to them in a more 
summary way. Lectures and discourses on the Decalogue^ the Tabernacle^ the Lordi's Prayer, 
the Sermon on the Mount, the Parables, the Miracles, on Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Balaam, 
David, Peter, Paul, etc., etc., will be found noticed in the Topical Index under their various 
appropriate topics. 

When a text embraces many verses it has not always been thought important to quote it 
in full, nor, when but a single clause is employed, to quote the whole verse. Honorary titles 
have been omitted, and even Christian names, when not necessary to designate the author re- 
ferred to. Titles of well-known books of well-known men have been abbreviated as much as 
possible, thus : " The Way of Salvation," by Albert Barnes — W. of Sal., Barnes ; " The Gospel 
in Ezekiel," by Thomas Guthrie, D. D. — G. in Ezk., Guthrie ; " A Pastor's Legacy," by Erskine 
Mason, D. D. — Past. Leg., E. Mason ; " The National Preacher, vol. 25 " — IST. P. 25, and so on. 

In regard to volumes of discourses that have no other distinguishing title, it has seemed 
sufficient to give the author's name only. The unwieldy Roman numerals, which are such a 
fruitful source of error and confusion in all Scriptural references when they are used, have 
been entirely discarded, and their place supplied by the Arabic figures ; and a colon indicates 
the division between chapter and verse.

the garden thou mayest freely eat : 

17 But of the tree of the knowledge 
of good and evil, thou shalt not eat 
of it : for in the day that thou eatest 
thereof thou shalt surely die. 

18 And the Lord God said. It is not

will make him an help meet for him.

9 And the Lord God called wnio 
Adam and said, Where art thou ? 

14 And the Lord God said unto the 
serpent. Because thou hast done 
this, thou art cursed above all cnt- 
tle, and above every beast of the 
field ; upon thy belly shalt thou go, 
and dust shalt thou eat aD the days 
of thy life : 

15 And I will put enmity between 
thee and the woman, and between 
thy seed and her seed ; it shall 
bruise thy head, and thou shalt 
bruise his heel. 

17 And unto Adam he said. Because 
thou hast hearkened unto the voice 
of thy wife, and hast eaten of the 
tree, of which I commanded thee, 
saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: 
cursed is the ground for thy sake ; 
in sorrow shalt thou eat of\t all the 
days of thy life : 

18 Thorns also and thistles shall it 
bring forth to thee ; and thou shalt 
eat the herb of the field ; 

19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou 
eat bread, till thou return unto the 
ground ; for out of it wast thou 

. taken : for dust thou art, and imto 

dust shalt thou retiu-n. 
21 Unto Adam .also and to his wife

6 : 8 And the Lord said, My Spirit shall 

not always strive with man, for that 
he also is flesh : yet his days shall 
be an hundred and twenty years. 

5 And God saw that the wickedness 
of man was great in the earth, 
and that every imagination of the 
thoughts of his heart was only evil 
continually. 

11 The earth also was corrapt be- 
fore God ; and the earth was filled 
with violence.

that God commanded him, so did 
he.

eous before me in this generation.

wag an oUve-leaf pluckt off. So 
Noah knew that the waters were 
abated from off the earth. 

20 And Noah builded an altar unto 
the Lord ; and took of every clean 
beast, and of every clean fowl, and 
offered burnt-offerings on the altar. 

22 While the earth remaineth, seed- 
time and harvest, and cold and 
heat, and summer and winter, and 
day aud night, shall not cease. 

5 And surely your blood of your 
lives will I require : at the hand of 
every beast will I require it, and at 
the hand of man ; at the hand of 
every man's brother will I require 
the life of man. 

6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by

the image of God made he man.

took of the stones of that place, and 
put them for his pillows, and lay 
down in that place to sleep.

behold, the angels of God ascending

morning, and took the stone that

it up for a pillar, and poured oil 
upon the top of it.

will give me bread to eat, and rai-

21 So that I come again to my fa-

go up to Beth-el, and dwell there. 

2 Then Jacob said unto his house- 
hold, and to all that were with him, 
Put away the strange gods that are 
among you, and be clean and change 
your garments : 

8 And let us arise, and go up to 
Beth-el : and I will make there an 
altar unto God, who answered me 
in the day of my distress, and was 
with me in the way which I went. 

4 And they gave unto Jacob all the 
strange gods which were in their 
hand, and all tfieir ear-rings which 
were in their ears ; and Jacob hid 
them under the oak which was by 
Shechem. 

6 So Jacob came to Luz, which is in 
the land of Canaan (that is Beth-el), 
he and all the people that were with 
him. 

T And he built there an altar, and 
called the place £l-beth-el ; because 
there God appeared unto him, when 
he fled from the face of his brother.

unto the Lord before Eli. And the 
word of the Lord was precious in 
those days; there was no open 
vision. 

10 And the Lord came, and stood, 
and called as at other times, Sam-

swered : Speak ; for thy servant 
heareth. 

13 For I have told him that I will 
judge his house for ever, for the 
iniquity which he knoweth ; be- 
cause his sons made themselves 
vile, and he restrained them not.

the house of Eh, that the iniquity 
of Eli's house shall not he purged

was with htm, and did let none of

it between Mlzpeh and Shen, and 
called the name of it Eben-ezer, 
saying. Hitherto hath the Lord 
helped us. 

13 And when he came, lo, EH sat 
upon a seat by the wayside watch- 
ing : for his heart trembled for the 
ark of God. And when the man 
came into the city, and told it, all 
the city cried out.

1 Blessed is the man that walketh 
not in the counsel of the ungodly, 
nor standeth in the way of sinners, 
nor sitteth in the seat of the scorn- 
ful. 

2 But his delight is in the law of 
the Lord ; and in his law doth he 
meditate day and night. 

3 And he shall be like a tree planted 
by the rivers of water, that bring- 
eth forth his fruit in his season ; 
his loaf also shall not wither ; and 
■whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 

4 The ungodly are not so : but are 
like the chatf which the wind driv- 
eth away. 

6 Therefore the ungodly shall not 
stand in the judgment, nor sinners 
in the congregation of the righteous.

opened : burnt offering and sin of-

67 Thxni art my portion, Lord : I 
have said that I would keep thy 
words. 

68 I entreated thy favour with my 
whole heart: be merciful unto me 
according to thy word. 

59 I thought on my ways, and turned 
my feet unto thy testimonies. 

60 I made haste, and delayed not to 
keep thy commandments. 



63 Thou art good, and doest good: 
teach me thy statutes. 

71 It is good for me that X have been 
afRicted ; that 1 might learn thy 
statutes. 

72 The law of thy mouth is better 
unto me than thousands of gold 
and silver. 

89 For ever, O Lord, thy word is 
settled in heaven. 

90 Thy faithfulness is unto all gen- 
ertitions : thou hast estabUshed the 
earth, and it abideth. 

91 They continue this day according 
to thine ordinances : for all are thy 
servants. 

98 I have seen an end of all perfec- 
tion : Init thy conamandment is ex- 
ceeding broad.

of az-e the ways of death. 



13 Even in laughter the heart is sor- 
rowful : and the end of that mirth 
is heaviness. 

14 The backslider in heart shall be 
filled with his ovra ways: and a 
good man shall ie satisfied from 
himself. 

32 The wicked is driven away in his 
wickedness : but the righteous hath 
hope in his death. 

34 Righteousness exalteth a nation : 
but sin is a reproach to any people. 



15 : 1 A soft answer turneth away wrath : 

but grievous words stir up anger. 
11 Hell and destruction are before the 

Lord: how much more then the 

hearts of the children of men ? 
24 The way of life is above to the 

wise, that he may depart from hell 

beneath. 

16 : 4 The Lord hath made all things for 

himself: yea, even the wicked for 
the day of evU. 



9 A man's heart deviseth his way: 

but the Lord directeth his steps. 
25 There is a way that seemeth right 

unto a man, but the end thereof are 

the ways of death. 
81 The hoary head is a crown of 

glory, if it be found in the way of 

righteousness. 
32 He that is slow to anger is better 

than the mighty ; and he that ruleth 

his spirit than he that taketh a city.

sired I kept not from them, I with- 
held not my heart from any joy ; for 
my heart rejoiced in all my labour : 
and this was my portion of all my 
labour. 
11 Then I looked on all the works 
that my hands had wrought, and on 
the labour that I had laboured to 
do : and, behold, all was vanity and 
vexation of spirit, and there teas no 
profit under the sun. 

16 For there in no remembrance of 
the \vlse more than of the fool for

the days to come shall all be forgot-

be put to it, nor any thing taken

10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to 
do, do it with thy might ; for there 
is no work, nor device, nor knowl- 
edge, nor wisdom, in the grave, 
whither thou goest. 

11 I returned, and saw under the 
sun, that the race is not to the 
swift, nor the battle to the strong, 
neither yet bread to the wise, nor 
yet riches to men of understanding, 
nor yet favour to men of skill ; but 
time and chance happeneth to them 
all. 

12 For man also knoweth not his 
time : as the fishes that are taken 
in an evil net, and as the birds that 
are caught in the snare ; so are the 
sons of men snared in an evil time, 
when it falleth suddenly upon them. 

16 Then said I, Wisdom is better 
than strength : nevertheless the 
poor man's wisdom is despised, 
and his words are not heard. 

18 Wisdom is better than weapons 
of war : but one sinner destroyeth 
much good.

the apothecary to send forth a

set upon sockets of fine gold : his

8 He is despised and rejected of 
men ; a man of sorrows, and ac- 
quainted with grief: and we hid as 
it were our faces from him ; he was 
despised, and we esteemed him not. 

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, 
and carried our sorrows : yet wo 
did esteem him stricken, smitten 
of God, and afflicted. 

7 He was oppressed, and he was af- 
flicted, yet he opened not his mouth: 
he is brought as a lamb to the slaugh- 
ter, and as a sbeep before her shear- 
ers is dumb, bo he opened not his 
mouth. 

8 He was taken from prison and 
from judgment : and who shall de- 
clare his generation ? for he was cut 
off out of the land of the living; for 
the transgression of my people was 
he stricken. 

10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise 
him ; he hath put him to grief : 
when thou shalt make his soul an 
offering for sin, he shall see Ma 
seed, he shall prolong his days, and 
the pleasure of the Lord shall pros- 
per in his hand. 

11 He shall see of the travail of his 
soul, and shall be satisfied : by his 
knowledge shall my righteous ser- 
vant justify many ; for he shall 
bear their iniquities.

Israel, Thus saith the Lord God ; I 
do not thin for your sakos, house 
of Israel, but for mine holy name's 
sake, which ye have profaned 
among the heathen, whither ye 
went. 

23 And I vdW sanctify my great name, 
which was profaned among the 
heathen, which ye have profaned in 
the midst of them ; and the hea- 
then shall know that I am the Lord, 
saith the Lord God, when I shall 
be sanctified in you before their 
eves. 

24 For I mil take you from among 
the heathen, and gather you out 
of all countries, and will bring you 
into your own land. 

25 Then will I sprinkle clean water 
upon you, and ye shall be clean : 
from all your filthiness, and from 
all your idols, will I cleanse you. 

26 A new heart also will I give yon, 
and a new spii-it will I put within 
you : and I will take away the 
stony heart out of your flesh, and I 
will give you an heart of flesh. 

2T And I will put my spirit within 
you, and cause you to walk in my 
statutes, and ye shall keep my 
judgments, and do thevi. 

28 And ye shall dwell in the land 
that I gave to your fathers ; and ye 
shall be my people, and I will be 
your God. 

29 I will also save you from all yonr 
nncleannesses : and I will call for 
the corn, and will increase it, and 
lay no famine upon you. 

30 And I will multiply the fruit of 
the tree, and the increase of the 
field, that ye shall receive no more 
reproach of famine among the hea- 
then. 

36 Then the heathen, that are left 
round about you, shall know that I 
the Lord build the ruined places, 
and plant that that was desolate : 
I the Lord have siioken it, and I 
will do it. 

37 Thus saith the Lord God ; I will 
yet /or this be inquired of by the 
house of Israel, to do it for them ; 
I will increase them with men like 
a flock. 

8S As the holy flock, as the flock of 
Jerusalem in her solemn foasts ; so 
shall the waste cities be filled mth 
flocks of men : and they shall know 
that I am the Lord.

" This unlovable prophet has found more commentators than any other," says Spurgeon ; " partly, we 
suppose, because the angles of his character excite greater interest, but mainly because we have some 
knowledge of his life, and therefore are able to realize his personality." 

Among the more recent authors of works on his life and character are J. Exell, Patrick Fairbum,

Son of God, cast thyself down : for 
it is written, He shall give his an-

in tJieir hands they shall bear Ihee 
up, lest at any time thou dash thy 
foot against a stone. 

1 Jesus said unto him, It is written 
again, Thou shalt not tempt the 
Lord thy God. 

8 Again, the devil taketh him up 
into an exceeding high mountain, 
and sheweth him all the kingdoms 
of the world, and the glory of them ; 

9 And saith unto him. All these 
things will I give thee, if thou wilt 
fell down and worship me. 

10 Then saith Jesus unto him. Get 
thee hence, Satan : for it is written, 
Thou shalt worship the Lord thy 
God, and him only shalt thou serve.

24 No man can serve two masters: 
for either he will hate the one, and 
love the other ; or else he will hold 
to the one, and despise the other. 
Ye cannot serve God and mammon. 

25 Therefore I say unto you. Take no 
thought for your life, what ye shall 
eat, or what ye shall drink ; nor yet 
for your body, what ye shall put on. 
Is not the life more than meat, and 
the body than raiment ?

33 But seek ye first the kingdom of 
God, and his righteousness ; and all 
these things shall be added imto you. 



84 Take therefore no thought for the 
morrow : for the morrow shall take 
thought for the things of itself. 
Sufficient unto the day is the evil 
thereof. 



7 : 1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 

7 Ask, and it shall be given yon; 
seek, and ye shall find ; knock, and 
it shall be opened unto you : 

8 For every one that asketh receiv- 
eth ; and he that seeketh findeth ; 
and to him that knocketh it shall be 
opened. 

11 

12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye 
would that men should do to you, 
do ye even so to them : for this is 
the" law and the prophets. 



13 Enter ye in at the strait gate : for 
wide is the gate, and broad is the 
way, that leadeth to destruction, 
and many there be which go in 
thereat : 

14 Because strait is the gate, and 
narrow is the way, which leadeth 
unto life, and few there be that find

he was moved with compassion on

were scattered abroad, as sheep 
having no shepherd. 

87 Then saith he unto his disciples. 
The harvest truly i« plenteous, but 
the labourers are few ;

10 : 18 And if tho house be worthy, let 
your peace couie upon it; but if it 
be not worthy, let your peace re- 
turn to you. 
16 Behold, I send you forth aa sheep 
in the midst of wolves : be ye there- 
fore wise as serpents, and harmless 
as doves. 



22 He that endureth to the end shall 
be saved. 



30 But the very hairs of your head 
are all numbered. 



32 ■Whosoever therefore shall confess 
me before men, him will I confess 
also before my Father which is in 
heaven. 



83 But whosoever shall deny me be- 
fore men, him will I also deny be- 
fore my Father which is in heaven. 

84 Think not that I am come to send 
peace on earth : I came not to send 
peace, but a sword. 

35 For I am come to set a man at 
variance against his father, and the 
daughter against her mother, and 
tho daughter in law against her 
mother in law. 

36 And a man's foes shall lie they of 
his own household.

11:2 Now when John had heard in the 
prison the works of Christ, he sent 
two of his disciples, 

3 And said unto him. Art thou he 
, that should come, or do we look for 

another? 

4 Jesus answered and said unto 
them. Go and shew John again 
those things which ye do hear and 
see: 

5 The blind receive their sight, and 
the lame walk, the lepers are 
cleansed, and the deaf hear, the 
dead are raised up, and the poor 
have the gospel preached to them. 

6 And blessed is 7ie, whosoever shall 
not be offended in me. 



11 Verily I say unto you. Among 
them that are born of women there 
hath not risen a greater than John 
the Baptist : notwithstanding, he 
that is least in the kingdom of 
heaven is greater than he.

Baptist until now the kingdom of

Thou shalt love thy neighbour as

; 24 The Son of man gooth as it is 
written of him : but woe unto that 
man by whom the Son of man is 
betrayed ! it had been good for that 
man if he had not been born. 

26 And as they were eating, Jesus 
took bread, and blessed it, and 
brake it, and gave it to the disci- 
ples, and said, Take, eat ; this is my 
body. 

2T And he took the cup, and gave 
thanks, and gave it to them, say- 
ing, Drink ye all of it ; 



2S For this is my blood of the new 
testament, which is shed for many 
for the remission of sins. 



29 But I say nnto you, I will not 
drink henceforth of this fruit of 
the vine, until that day when I 
drink it new with you in my Fa- 
ther's kingdom. 

80 And when they had sung a hymn, 
they went out into the mount of 
Olives.

83 Then saith he unto them, My soul 
is exceeding sorrowful, even unto 
death: tarry ye here, and watch 
with me. 

89 And he went a little further, and 
fell on his face, and prayed, saying, 
O my Father, if it be possible, let 
this cup pass from me : neverthe- 
less, not as I \vill, but as thou wilt. 

41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not 
into temptation : the spirit indeed 
is willing, but the flesh is weak.

is one Lord : 

80 And thou shalt love the Lord thy 
God with all thy heart, and mth all

34 For the Son of man is as a man 

taking a far journey, who left his 
house, and gave authority to his 
servants, and to every man his 
work, and commanded the porter 
to watch.

Cometh, at even, or at midnight,

14 : 3 And being in Bethany, in the house 
of Simon the leper, as he sat at 
meat, there came a woman having 
an alabaster box of ointment of 
spikenard very precious ; and she 
brake the box, and poured it on his 
head. 
4 And there were some that had In- 
dignation within themselves, and 
said. Why was this waste of the 
ointment made f 

6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; 
why trouble ye her? she hath 
wrought a good work on me. 

7 For ye have the poor with you 
always, and whensoever ye will ye 
may do them good: but me ye 
have not always. 

8 She hath done what she could : she 
is come aforehand to anoint my 
body to the burying. 

9 Verily I say unto yon, Whereso- 
ever this gospel shall be preached 
throughout the whole world, this 
also that she hath done shall be 
spoken of for o memorial of her. 

22-25 

38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter 
into temptation. The spirit truly 
is ready, but the flesh is weak. 

48 And Jesus answered and said un- 
to them. Are ye come out, as against 
a thief, with swords and with staves 
to take me ? 

T2 And when he thought thereon, he 
wept.

down from heaven, and consume 
them, even as Elias did?

1 : 8 He was not that Light, but was 
sent to bear witness of that Light. 
9 That was the true Light, which 
lighteth every man that cometh in- 
to the world. 

10 He was in the world, and the world 
was made by him, and the world 
knew him not. 

11 He came unto his own, and his 
own received him not. 

12 But as many as received htm, to 
them gave he power to become the 
sons of God, even to them that be- 
lieve on his name : 

18 Which were born, not of blood, 
nor of the will of the flesh, nor of 
the will of man, but of God. 

14 And the Word was made flesh, 
and dwelt among us, (and we be- 
held his glory, the glory as of the 
only begotten of the Father,) full 
of grace and truth. 



16 And of his fiilness have all we re- 
ceived, and grace for grace. 



17 For the law was given by Moses, 
but grace and truth came by Jesus 
Christ. 

18 No man hath seen God at any 
time; the only begotten Son, which 
is in the bosom of the Father, he 
hath declared liim.

48 Nathanael saith unto him. Whence 
knowest thou me ? Jesus answered

1 There was a man of the Pharisees, 
named Nicodemus, a ruler of the 
Jews: 

2 The same came to Jesus by night, 
and said unto him, Eabbi, we know 
that thou art a teacher come from 
God : for no man can do these mira- 
cles that thou doest, except God be 
with him. 

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, 
Verily, verily, I say unto thee. Ex- 
cept a man be born again, he can- 
not see the kingdom of God. 

4 Nicodemus saith unto him. How 
can a man be born when he is 
old ? can he enter the second time 
into his mother's womb, and be 
born? 

5 Jesus answered. Verily, verily, I 
eay unto thee. Except a man be 
born of water and of the Spirit, he 
cannot enter into the kingdom of 
God. 

6 That which is born of the flesh is 
flesh ; and that which is born of the 
Spirit is spirit. 

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee. 
Ye must be born again. 



8 The wind bloweth where it list- 
eth, and thou hearest the sound 
thereof, but canst not tell whence 
it Cometh, and whither it goeth : so 
is every one that is born of the 
Spirit. 



9 Nicodemus answered and said un- 
to him. How can these things be ? 

11 Verily, verily, [ say unto thee, "We 
speak that we do know, and testify 
that we have seen ; and ye receive 
not our witness. 

12 If I have told you earthly things, 
and ye believe not, how shall ye be- 
lieve if I tell you o/heavenly things ? 



14 And as Moses lifted up the ser- 
pent in the wilderness, even so 
must the Son of man be lifted up : 

15 That whosoever belleveth in him 
should not perish, but have eternal 
Ufe. 



16 For God so loved the world, that 
he gave his only begotten Son, that 
whosoever belleveth in him should 
not perish, but have everlasting 
life. 



17 For God sent not his Son into the 
world to condemn the world ; but 
that the world through him might 
be saved.

: 18 He that believeth on him is not 
condemned : but he that believeth 
not is condemned alreadj', because 
he hath not believed in the name 
of the only begotten Son of God. 



20 For every one that doeth evil hat- 
eth the lignt, neither cometh to the 
light, lest his deeds should be re- 
proved. 

21 But he that doeth truth cometh to 
the light, that his deeds may be 
made manifest, that they are 
wrought in God. 

86 He that believeth on the Son hath

10 Jesus answered and said unto her, 
If thou knewest the gift of God, 
and who it is that saitb to thee. 
Give me to drink ; thou wouldest 
have asked of him, and he would 
have given thee living water. 

20-29 

21 Jesus saith unto her. Woman, be- 
lieve me, the hour cometh, when ye 
shall neither in this mountain, nor 
yet at Jerusalem, worship the Fa- 
ther. 

22 Ye worship ye know not what: 
we know what we worship ; for sal- 
vation is of the Jews. 

23 But the hour cometh, and now is, 
when the true worshippers shall 
worship the Father in spirit and in 
truth ; for the Father seeketh such 
to worship him. 

24 God is a Spirit : and they that 
worship him must worship him in 
spirit and in truth. 

25 The woman saith unto him, I 
know that Messias cometh, which 
is called Christ: when he is come, 
he will tell us all things. 

26 Jesus saith unto heri I that speak 
unto thee am he. 

85 Say not ye, There are yet four 
months, and then cometh harvest? 
behold, I say unto you. Lift up 
your eyes, and look on the fields ; 
for they are white already to har- 
vest. 

86 And he that reapeth receiveth 
wages, and gathereth fruit unto 
life eternal : that both he that sow- 
eth and he that reapeth may rejoice 
together. 

87 And herein is that saying true, 
One soweth, and another reapeth.

: 8 When Jesus saw hiin lie, he saith 
unto him, Wilt thou be made 
whole ? 

7 The impotent man answered him. 
Sir, I have no man, when the water 
is troubled, to put me into the 
pool : but while I am coming, an- 
other steppeth down before me. 

8 Jesus saith unto him. Else, take 
up thy bed, and walk. 

9 And immediately the man was 
made ■whole, and took up his bed, 
and walked : and on the same day 
was the sabbath. 

14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in 
the temple, and said unto him, 
Behold, thou art made whole : sin 
no more, lest a worse thing come 
unto thee. 

17 But Jesus answered them. My 
Father worketh hitherto, and I 
work.

28 Marvel not at this : for the hour 
is coming, in the which all that are 
in the graves shall hear his voice, 

29 And shall come forth; they that 
have done good, unto the resurrec- 
tion of life; and they that have 
done evil, unto the resurrection of 
damnation. 

80 I can of mine own self do nothing: 
as I hear, I judge : and my .iudg- 
ment is just ; because I seek not 
mine own will, but the will of the 
Father which hath sent me.

42 But I know you, that ye have not 
the love of God in you. 

43 I am come in my Father's name, 
and ye receive me not : if another 
shall come in his own name, him ye

17 And it was now dark, and Jesus 
was not come to them.

23 Then said they unto him, "Wh-it

29 Jesus answered and said unto 
them. This is the work of God, that 
j'e believe on him whom he hath

34 Then said they unto him, Lord,

85 And Jesus said unto them, I am

me shall never hunger ; and he that 
believeth on me shall never thirst. 

86 But I said unto you. That ye also 
have seen me, and believe not. 

87 All that the Father giveth me shall 
come to me ; and him that cometh 
to me I will in no wise cast out. 

44 No man can come to me, except 
the Father which hath sent me 
draw him : and I will raise him up 
at the last day. 

45 It is written in the prophets, And 
they shall be all taught of God. 
Every man therefore that hath 
heard, and hath learned of the 
Father, cometh unto me.

66 From that time many of his disci- 
ples went back, and walked no more 
with him. 

67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, 
Wiil ye also go away ?

Lord, to whom shall we go ? thou 
hast the words of eternal life.

10 : 11 I am the good shepherd ; the good 

shepherd giveth his life for the 
sheep. 

14 I am the good shepherd, and know 
my sheep., and am known of mine. 

15 As the Father knoweth me, even 
so know I the Father: and I lay- 
down my life for the sheep. 

16 And other sheep I have, which 
are not of this fold: them also I 
must bring, and they shall hear my 
voice ; and there shall be one fold, 
and one shepherd. 

17 Therefore doth my Father love me, 
because I lay down my life, that I 
might take it again. 

18 No man taketh it from me, but I 
lay it down of myself I have 
power to lay it down, and I have 
power to take it again. This com- 
mandment have I received of my 
Father. 

27 My sheep hear my voice, and I 
know them, and they follow me : 

23 And I give unto them eternal 
life ; and they shall never perish, 
neither shall any man pluck them 
out of my hand. 

83 The Jews answered him, saying, 
For a good work we stone thee not ; 
but for blasphemy; and because that 
thou, being a man, makest thyself 
God.

19 And many of the Jews came to 
Martha and Mary, to comfort them 
concerning their brother. 

20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard 
that Jesus was coming, went and 
met him : but Mary sat still in the 
house. 

21 Then said Martha unto Jesus, 
Lord, if thou hadst been here, my 
brother had not died. 

22 But I know, that even now, what- 
soever thou wilt ask of God, God 
will give it thee. 

23 Jesus eaith unto her. Thy brother 
shall rise again. 

25 Jesus said unto her, I am the res- 
urrection, and the life : he that 
believeth in me, though he were 
dead, yet shall he Uve. 



84 And said, "Where have ye laid him ? 
They say unto him, Iiord, come and 
see. 

85 Jesojs wept. 



36 Then said the Jews, Behold how 
he loved him ! 

39 Jesus said. Take ye away the 
stone. Martha, the sister of him 
that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, 
by this time he stinketh: for he 
hath been dead four days.

of God f

16 These thiogs understood not his 
disciples at the first : bnt when 
Jesus was glorified, then remem- 
bered they that these things were 
written of him, and that tlaey had 
done these things unto him. 

31 Sir, we would see Jesus. 

24 Verily, verily, I say unto you. Ex- 
cept a corn of wheat fall into the 
ground and die, it abideth alone : 
but if it die, it bringeth forth much 
fruit. 

25 He that loveth his life shall lose 
it ; and he that hatoth his life in 
this world shall keep it unto life 
eternal. 

27 Now is my soul troubled : and 
what shall I say ? Father, save me 
from this hour : but for this cause 
came I unto this houi-. 

28 feather, glorify thy name. Then 
came there a voice from heaven, 
saying, I have both glorified it, and 
will glorify it again. 

29 The people therefore that stood 
by, and heard it, said that it thun- 
dered : others said. An angel spake 
to him. 

32 And I, if I be lifted up from the 
earth, will draw all men unto me. 

33 This he said, signifying what death 
he should die. 



37 But though he had done so many 
miracles before them, yet they be- 
lieved not on him. 

41 



42 Nevertheless among the chief rul- 
ers also many believed on him ; but 
because of the Pharisees they did 
not confess Mm, lest they should 
be put out of the synagogue :

more than the praise of God.

hath seen me hath seen the Father.

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you. He 
that believeth on me, the works 
that I do shall he do also; and 
greater works than these shall he 
do ; because I go unto my Father.

he shall give you another Com- 
forter, that he may abide with you

the world cannot receive, because 
it seeth him not, neither knoweth 
him : but ye know him ; for he 
dwelleth with you, and shall be in 
you.

will come to you. 

19 Yet a little while, and the world 
seeth me no more ; but ye see me : 
because I live, ye shall live also. 

23 Jesus answered and said unto him, 
If a man love me, he will keep my 
words: and my Father will love 
him, and we will come unto him, 
and make our abode with him. 

26 But the Comforter, which is the 
Holy Ghost, whom the Father will 
Bend in my name, he shall teach 
you all things, and bring all things 
to your remembrance, whatsoever 
I have said unto you. 

27 Peace I leave with you, my peace 
I give unto you : not as the world 
giveth, give I unto you. Let not

it be afraid. 



5 Ye have heard how I said unto

7 Nevertheless I tell yon the truth ; 
It is expedient for you that I go 
away: for if I go not away, the 
Comforter will not come unto you ; 
but if I depart, I will send him unto 
you.

1 These words spake Jesus, ond 
lifted up his eyes to heaven, and 
said, Father, the hour is come; glo- 
rify thy Son, that thy Son also may 
glorify thee : 

2 As thou hast given him power 
over all flesh, that he should give 
eternal life to as many as thou hast 
given him. 

8 And this is life eternal, that they 
might know thee the only true God, 
and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast 
sent. 

4 I have glorified thee on the earth : 
I have finished the work which 
thou gavest me to do. 

5 And now, O Father, glorify thou 
me with thine own self with the 
glory which I had with thee before 
the world was. 

6 I have manifested thy name unto 
the men which thou gavest me out 
of the world : thine they were, and 
thou gavest them me; and they 
have kept thy word. 

10 And all mine are thine, and thine 

arc mine ; and I am glorified in 

them. 
14 
15 
17 Sanctify them through thy truth : 

thy word is truth. 
IS As thou hast sent me into the 

world, even so have I also sent them 

into the world. 

19 And for their sakes I sanctify my- 
self, that they also might be sancti- 
fied through the truth. 

20 Neither pray I for these alone, but 
for them also which shall believe on 
me through their word ; 

21 That they all maybe one ; as thou, 
Father, art in me, and I in thee, 
that they also may be one in us : 
that the world may beUeve that 
thou hast sent me. 



24 Father, I will that they also, whom 
thou hast given me, be with me 
where I am ; that they may behold 
my glory, which thou hast given 
me : for thou lovedst me before the 
foundation of the world.

18 : 23 Jesus answered him. If I have 
spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: 
but if well, why smitest thou me ? 

29-40 

83-86 

36 Jesus answered, My kine^dom is 
not of this world: if my kingdom 
were of this world, then would my 
servants fight, that I should not be 
delivered to the Jews : but now is 
my kingdom not from hence. 

87 Pilate therefore said unto him, 
Art thou a king then ? Jesus an- 
swered. Thou sayest that I am a 
king. To this end was I born, and 
for this cause came I into the 
world, that I should bear witness 
unto the truth. Every one that is 
of the truth heareth my voice. 

83 Pilate saith unto him, What is 
truth? And when he had said 
this, ho went out again unto the 
Jews, and saith unto them, I find 
in him no fault at all.

THEME OF DISCOCESE. 



19 : 5 And Pilate saith unto them, Be- 
hold the man 1 
12 And from thenceforth Pilate 
sought to release him : but the 
Jews cried out, saying, If thou let 
this man go, thou art not Caesars 
friend : whosoever maketh himself 
a king speaketh against Caesar. 
13-37 



17 And he bearing his cross went 
forth into a place called the place 
of a skull, which is called in the 
Hebrew Golgotha. 

28-24 

25 Now there stood by the cross of 
Jesus his mother, and his mother's 
Bister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, 
and Mary Magdalene. 

26 When Jesus therefore saw his 
mother, and the disciple standing 
by, whom he loved, he saith unto 
his mother, Woman, behold thy 
eon I 

27 Then saith he to the disciple. Be- 
hold thy mother I And from that 
hour that disciple took her unto his 
own home. 

28 After this, Jesus knowing that all 
things were now accomplished, that 
the scripture might be fulfilled, 
saith, I thirst. 

29 Now there was set a vessel full of 
vinegar : and they filled a sponge 
vrith vinegar, and put it upon hys- 
sop, and put it to his mouth. 

80 When Jesus therefore had re- 
ceived the vinegar, he said, It is 
finished : and he bowed his head, 
and gave up the ghost. 

84 But one of the soldiers with a 
spear pierced his side, and forth- 
with came there out blood and 
■water.

17 Jesus saith tmto her, Touch me 
not ; for I am not yet ascended to 
my Father: but go to my breth-

unto my Father, and your Father ; 
and to my God, and your God.

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Eeach 
hither thy finger, and behold my 
hands ; and reach hither thy hand, 
and thrust i^into my side ; and be 
not faithless, but believing. 

28 And Thomas answered and said 
unto him, My Lord and my Goi 



29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, 
because thou hast seen me, thou 
hast believed: blessed are they 
that have not seen, and yet have 
believed.

7 It is the Lord. 

15 So when they had dined, Jesus 
saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son 
of Jonas, lovest thou me more than 
these? He saith unto him. Yea, 
Lord; thou knowest that I love 
thee. He saith unto him, Feed my 
lambs. 



IT He saith nnto him the third time, 
Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou 
me ? Peter was grieved because 
he said unto him the third time, 
Lovest thou me? And he said 
unto him. Lord, thou knowest all 
things ; thou knowest that I love 
thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed 
my sheep. 

18 verily, verily, I say unto thee. 
When thou wast young, thou gird- 
edst thyself, and walkedst whither 
thou wouldest: but when thou 
Shalt be old, thou shalt stretch 
forth thy hands, and another shall 
gird thee, and carry thee whither 
thou wouldest not. 

20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth 
the disciple whom Jesus loved fol- 
lowing; which also leaned on his 
breast at supper, and said, Lord, 
which is he that betrayeth thee ? 

21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, 
Lord, and what shall this man do f 

22 Jesus saith unto him. If I will 
that he tarry till I come, what is 
that to thee ? follow thou me. 

25 And there are also many other 
things which Jesus did, the which, 
if they should be written every one, 
I suppose that even the world itself 
could not contain the books that 
should be written. Amen.

Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth 
this, which ye now see and hear. 

36 

37 Now when they heard ttis, they 
were pricked in their heart, and 
said unto Peter and to the rest of 
the apostles, Men and brethren, 
what shall we do ? 

3S Then Peter said unto them, Ee- 
pent, and be baptized every one of 
you in the name of Jesus Christ for 
the remission of sins, and ye shall 
receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 

89 For the promise is unto' you, and 
to your children, and to all that are 
afar off, even as many as the Lord 
our God shall call. 

41 

42 And they continued steadfastly in 
the apostles' doctrine and fellow- 
ship, and in breaking of bread, and 
in prayers. 

46 And they, continuing daily with 
one accord in the temple, and 
breaking bread from house to 
house, did eat their meat \vith 
gladness and singleness of heart, 

47 Praising God, and having favour 
with all the people. And the Lord 
added to the church daily such as 
should be saved. 

: 14 But ye denied the Holy One and 
the Just, and desired a murderer to 
be granted unto you ; 
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom 
God hath raised from the dead; 
whereof we are witnesses. 

19 Eepent ye therefore, and be con- 
verted, that your sins m.iy be blotted 
out, when the times of refreshing 
shall come from the presence of the 
Lord; 

20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, 
which before was preached unto 
you: 

21 TVhom the heaven must receive 
until the times of restitution of all 
things, which God hath spoken by 
the mouth of all his holy prophets 
since the world began.

to obey God rather than men. 

80 The God of our fathers raised up 
Jesus, whom ye slew ajid hanged 
on a tree. 

31 Him hath God exalted with his 
right hand to be a Prince and a 
Saviour, for to give repentance to 
Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

things; and so is also the Holy 
Ghost, whom God hath given to

9 : 6 And he said, Who art thou, Lord ? 
And the Lord said, I am Jesus 
whom thou persecutest : it in hard 
for thee to liick against the pricks. 
6 And he trembling and astonished 
said, Lord, what wilt thou have me 
to do? And the Lord saM unto 
him, Arise, and go into the city, 
and it shall be told thee what thou 
must do. 

11 And the Lord said unto him, 
Arise, and go into the street which 
is called Straight, and inquu-e in 
the house of Judas for one called 

■ S.iul, of Tarsus : for, behold, he 
prayeth. 

22 But Saul increased the more in 
strength, and confounded the Jews 
which dwelt at Damascus, proving 
that this is very Chiist. 

81 Then had the churches rest 
throughout all Judea and Galilee 
and Samaria, and were edified ; and 
walking in the fear of the Lord, 
and in the comfort of the Holy 
Ghost, were muJtipUed. 

86 Now there was at Joppa a certain 
disciple named Tabitha, which by 
interpretation is called Dorcas : this

almsdeeds which she did.

band called the Italian band. 

2 A devout man, and one that feared 
God with all his house, which gave 
much ahns to the people, and prayed 
to God always. 

84 Then Peter opened his mouth, and 
said, Of a truth I perceive that God 
is no respecter of persons : 

85 But in every nation he that feareth 
him, and worketh righteousness, is 
accepted with him.

to be the Judge of quick and dead.

17 : 23 For as I passed by, and beheld 
your devotions, I found an altar 
with this inscription, TO THE 
UNKNOWN GOD. Whom there- 
fore ye ignorantly worship, him 
declare I unto you. 

26 And hath made of one blood all 
nations of men for to dwell on all 
the face of the earth, and hath de- 
termined the times before appoint- 
ed, and the bounds of their habita- 
tion; 

2T That they should seek the Lord, 
if haply they might feel after him, 
and tind him, though he be not far 
from every one of us. 

80 And the times of this ignorance 
God winked at; but now com- 
mandeth all men every where to 
repent : 

81 Because he hath appointed a day, 
in the which he mil judge the world 
in righteousness by that man whom 
he hath ordained ; whereof he hath 
given assurance unto all me?!., in 
that he hath raised him from the 
dead.

that by the space of three years I 
ceased not to warn every one night 
and day with te.irs. 

82 And now, brethren, I commend 
you to God, and to the word of his 
grace, which is able to build you 
up, and to give you an inheritance 
among sill them which are sanctified. 

85 I have shewed you all things, how 
that so labouring ye ought to sup- 
port the we.ak, and to remember 
the words of the Lord Jesus, how 
he said, It is more blessed to give 
than to receive.

THEME OF DISCOCESE. 



AUTHOR. 



: 14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, 
and to the Barbarians ; both to the 
wise, and to the unwise. 
15 So, as much as in me is, I am 
ready to preach the gospel to you 
that are at Kome also. 



16 For I am not ashamed of the gos- 
pel of Christ : for it is the power of 
God unto salvation to every one 
that believeth ; to the Jew first, and 
also to the Greek. 



17 For therein is the righteousness of 
God revealed from faith to faith : as 
it is written, The just shall live by 
faith. 

18 For the wrath of God is revealed 
from heaven against all ungodliness 
and unrighteousness of men, who 
hold the truth in unrighteousness ; 

19 Because that which may be knovm 
of God is manifest in them ; for God 
hath shewed it unto them. 



20 For the invisible things of him 
from the creation of the world are 
clearly seen, being understood by 
the things that are made, even his 
eternal power and Godhead ; so 
that they are without excuse : 

21 Because that, when they knew 
God, they glorified him not as God, 
neither were thankful ; but became 
vain in their imaginations, and their 
foohsh heart was darkened. 



24 



25 



3 And even as they did not like to 
retain God in </iei> knowledge, God 
gave them over to a reprobate 
mind, to do those things which are 
not convenient. 

2 Who, knowing the judgment of 
God, that they which commit such 
things are worthy of death, not 
only do the same, but have pleas- 
ure in them that do them.

14 For when the Gentiles, which 
have not the law, do by nature the 
things contained in the law, these, 
having not the law, are a law unto 
themselves : 

15 Which shew the work of the law 
written in their hearts, their con- 
science also bearing witness, and 
their thoughts the mean while ac- 
cusing or else excusing one anoth- 
er ; 

16 In the day when God shall .judge 
the secrets of men by Jesus Christ 
according to my gospel.

; 1 What advantage then hath the 
Jew ? or what profit is there of cir- 
cumcision ? 
2 Much every way : chiefly, because 
that unto them were committed the 
oracles of God. 

8 For what if some did not believe 1 
shall their imbelief make the faith 
of God without effect? 

4 God forbid : yea, let God be true, 
but every man a Uar ; as it is writ- 
ten, That thou mightest be justi- 
fied in thy sayings, and mightest 
overcome when thou art judged,

19 Now we know that what things 
soever the law saith, it saith to 
them who are under the law : that 
every mouth may be stopped, and 
all the world may become guilty 
before God. 

20 Therefore by the deeds of the law 
there shall no flesh be justified in 
his sight: for by the law is the 
knowledge of sin. 



22 Even the righteousness of God 
which is by faith of Jesus Christ 
unto all and upon all them that be- 
lieve ; for there is no difl'erence : 

23 For all have sinned, and come 
short of the glory of God ; 

24 Being justified freely by his grace 
through the redemption that is in 
Christ Jesus : 



25 Whom God hath set forth to be a 
propitiation through faith in his 
blood, to declare his righteousness 
for the remission of sins that are 
past,throughtheforhearanceofGod; 

26 To declare, I say, at this time his 
righteousness : that he might be 
just, and the justifier of him which 
believeth in Jesus. 

27 Where is boasting then? It is ex- 
cluded. By what law ? of works ? 
Nay ; but by the law of faith. 

28 Therefore we conclude that a man 
is justified by faith without the 
deeds of the law.

1 Therefore being justified by faith, 
we have peace with God through 
our Lord Jesus Christ : 

2 By whom also we have access by 
faith into this grace wherein we 
stand, and rejoice in hope of the 
glory of God. 

5 And hope maketh not ashamed. 

6 For when we were yet without 
strength, in due time Christ died 
for the ungodly. 

8 But God commendeth his love 
toward us, in that, while we were 
yet sinners, Christ died for us. 



10 For if, when we were enemies, 
we were reconciled to God by the 
death of his Son ; much more, be- 
ing reconciled, we shall be saved by 
his life. 

11 And not only so, but we also joy 
in God through our Lord Jesus 
Christ, by whom we have now re- 
ceived the atonement. 

12 Wherefore, as by one man sin en- 
tered into the world, and death by 
Bin; and so death passed upon all 
men, for that all have sinned : 

13 For until the law sin was in the 
world : but sin is not imputed when 
there is no law. 

\i 

15 But not as the offence, so also is 
the free gift : for if through the of- 
fence of one many be dead, much 
more the grace ofGod, and the gift 
by grace, which is by one man, 
Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto 
many. 

17 

19 For as by one man's disobedience 
many were made sinners, so by the 
obedience of one shall many be made 
righteous. 

20 Moreover the law entered, that the 
offence might abound. But where 
sin aboimded, grace did much more 
abound.

4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also 
are become dead to the law by the 
body of Clirist ; that ye should be 
married to another, even to him 
who is raised from the dead, that 
we should bring forth fruit imto 
God. 

9 For I was alive without the law 
once : but when the commandment 
came, sin revived, and I died. 

10 And the commandment, which 

was ordained to life, I found to be 

unto death. 
12 "Wherefore the law is holy, and the 

commandment holy, and just, and 

good. 

13 



14 For we know that the law is 
spiritual : but I am carnal, sold 
under sin. 

15 For that which I do, I allow not : 
for what I would, that do I not ; 
but what I hate, that do I. 

18-19 

19 For the good that I would, I do 

not: but the evil which I would 

not, that I do. 



22 For I delight in the law of God 
after the inward man : 

23 But I see another law in my mem- 
bers, warring against the law of my 
mind, and bringing me into cap- 
tivity to the law of sin which is in 
my members. 

24 O wretched man that I am ! who 
shall deliver me from the body of 
this death? 

25 I thank God through Jesus Christ 
our Lord. So then with the mind 
I myself serve the law of God ; but 
with the flesh the law of sin.

CHAP. VIII. ROMANS. 



THEME OF DISCOURSE. 



8 : 6 For to be carnally minded U death ; 
but to be spiritually minded is life 
and peace. 



7 Becanse the carnal mind is enmity 
against God : for it is not subject 
to the law of God, neither indeed 
can be. 



8 So then they that are in the flesh 
cannot please God. 

9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in 
the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit 
of God dwell in you. Now if any 
man have not the Spirit of Christ, 
he is none of his. 

12 Therefore, brethren, we are debt- 
ors, not to the flesh, to live after the 
flesh. 

14 For as many as are led by the 
Spirit of God, they are the sons of 
God. 

15 For ye have not received the spirit 
of bondage again to fear; but ye 
have received the Spirit of adop- 
tion, whereby we cry, Abba, Fa- 
ther. 

16 The Spirit itself beareth witness 
with our spirit, that we are the 
children of God: 

17 And if children, then heirs ; heirs 
of God, and joint heirs with Christ; 
if so be that we suifer with him, 
that we may be also glorified to- 
gether. 

18 For I reckon that the sufferings 
of this present time are not worthy 
to he compareoi with the glory 
which shall be revealed in us. 



19 For the earnest expectation of the 
creature waiteth for the manifesta- 
tion of the sons of God. 



20 For the creature was made sub- 
ject to vanity, not mllingly, but by 
reason of him who hath subjected 
the same in hope ; 

21 Because the creature itself also 
shall be delivered from the bondage 
of corruption into the glorious Ub- 
erty of the children of God. 

24 For we are saved by hope : but 
hope that is seen is not hope : for 
what a man seeth, why doth he yet 
hope for ? 

26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth 
our infirmities : for we know not 
what we should pray for as we 
ought: but the Spirit itself maketh 
intercession for us with groanings 
which cannot be uttered. 



27 And he that searcheth the hearts 
knoweth what is the mind of the 
Spirit, because he maketh interces- 
sion for the saints according to the 
will of God. 

28 And we know that all things work 
together for good to them that love 
God, to them who are the called 
according to his purpose.

14: 5-6 



T For none of us liveth to himself 
and no man dieth to himself. 

8 For whether wo hve, we live unto 
the Lord ; and whether we die, we 
die unto the Lord : whether we 
live therefore, or die, we are the 
Lord's. 

9 For to this end Christ both died, 
and rose, and revived, that he might 
ie Lord both of the dead and living. 

10 But why dost thou iudge thy 
brother? or why dost thou set at 
nought thy brother? for we shall 
all stand before the judgment seat 
of Christ.

16 Let not then your good be evil 
spoken of: 

17 For the kingdom of God Is not 
meat and drink ; but righteousness, 
and peace, and joy in the Holy 
Ghost. 

18 For he that in these things serv- 
eth Christ is acceptable to God, and 
approved of men.

behalf, for the grace of God which 
is given you by Jesus Christ.

18 For the preaching of the cross is 
to them that perish, foohshness ; 
but unto us which are saved, it is 
the power of God. 

21 For after that in the wisdom of 
God the world by wisdom knew 
not God, it pleased God by the fool- 
ishness of preaching to save them 
that believe. 

23 But we preach Christ crucified, 
unto the Jews a stumbhngblock, 
and unto the Greeks foolishness ; 

24 But imto them which are called, 
both Jews and Greeks, Christ the 
power of God, and the wisdom of 
God. 



26-29 

27 But God hath chosen the foolish 
things of the world to confound 
the wise ; and God hath chosen 
the weak things of the world to 
confound the things which are 
mighty ; 

28 And base things of the world, and 
things which are despised, hath God 
chosen, yea, and things which are 
not, to bring to nought things that 
are : 

29 That no flesh should glory in his 
presence. 

80 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, 
who of God is made unto us wis- 
dom, and righteousness, and sanc- 
tification, and redemption : 



81 That, according as it is written.

the Lord.

2 For I determined not to know any 
thing among you, save Jesus Christ, 
and him crucified. 



8 And I was with you in weakness, 
and in fear, and in much trembling. 

4 And my speech and my preach- 
ing was not with enticing words 
of man's wisdom, but in demon- 
stration of the Spirit and of power. 

6 

7 But we speak the wisdom of God 
in a mystery, even the hidden wis- 
dom, which God ordained before 
the world unto our glory. 



9 But as it is written, Eyo hath not 
seen, nor ear heard, neither have 
entered into the heart of man, the 
things which God hath prepared for 
them that love him. 

12 

13 "Which things also we speak, not 
in the words which man's wis- 
dom toacheth, but which the Holy 
Ghost teacheth ; comparing spirit- 
ual tilings with spiritual. 



3: 2 



5 For ye are yet carnal : for whereas 
there is among you envj'ing, and 
strife, and divisions, are ye not car- 
nal, and walk as men ? 

6 I have planted, Apollos watered ; 
but God gave the increase. 

7 So then neither is he that planteth 
any thing, neither he that water- 
eth ; but God that giveth the in- 
crease. 

8 Now he that planteth and he that 
watereth are one: and every man 
shall receive his own reward ac- 
cording to his own labour. 

9 For we are labourers together with 
God : ye are God's husbandry, ye 
are God's building. 

10-n 

11 For other foundation can no man 

lay than that is laid, which is Jesus 

Christ. 

l.S-15 

15 If any man's work shall be burned, 
he shall suffer loss: but he him- 
self shall be saved ; yet so as by 
fire. 



16 Know ye not that ye are the tem- 
ple of God, and that the Spirit of 
God dwelleth in you ? 

17 If any man defile the temple of 
God, him shall God destroy ; for 
the temple of God is holy, which 
temple ye are. 

19 For the wisdom of this world is 
foolishness with God : for it is writ- 
ten. He taketh the wise in their 
own craftiness. 

20 And again. The Lord knoweth the 
thoughts of the wise, that they are 
vain. 

21 Therefore let no man glory in men : 
for all things are yours ; 

22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Ce- 
pha.s, or the world, or life, or death, 
or things present, or things to come; 
all are yours ; 

23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ 
is God's.

12 All things are lawful unto me, but

19 What! know ye not that your 
body is the temple of the Holy 
Ghost which is in you, which ye 
have of God, and ye are not your 
own?

29 But this I say, brethren, the time 
is short: it remaineth, that both 
they that have wives be as though 
they had none ; 

80 And they that weep, as though 
they wept not; and they that rejoice, 
as though they rejoiced not; and 
they that buy, as though they pos- 
sessed not ; 

81 And they that use this world, as 
not abusing it: for the fashion of 
this world passeth away.

conscience, ye sin against Christ

22 To the weak tecamo I as weak, 
that I misht gain the weak : I am 
made all things to all men, that I 
might by all means save some. 

24 Know ye not that they which run 
in a race run all, but one receiveth 
the prize? So run, that ye may 
obtain. 

25 And every man that striveth for 
the mastery is temperate in all 
things. Now they do it to obtain 
a corruptible crown ; but we an in- 
corruptible. 

26 I therefore so run, not as uncer- 
tainly : so fight I, not as one that 
beateth the air : 

27 But I keep under my body, and 
bring it into subjection : lest that 
by any means, when I have preach- 
ed to others, I myself should be a 
castaway. 

10 : 8 And did all eat the same spiritual 
meat; 
4 And did all drink the same spirit- 
ual drink ; for they drank of that 
spiritual Rock that followed them: 
and that Eock was Christ.

18 There hath no temptation taken 
you but such as is common to man : 
but God is faithful, who will not 
suffer you to be tempted above that 
ye are able ; but will \vith the temp- 
tation also make a way to escape, 
that ye may be able to bear it. 

16 The cup of blessing which we 
bless, is it not the communion of 
the blood of Christ? The bread 
which we break, is it not the com- 
munion of the body of Christ ?

1 Though I speak with the tongues 
of men and of angels, and have not 
charity, I am become as sounding 
brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 

2 And though I have the gift of 
prophecy, and understand all mys- 
teries, and all knowledge ; and 
though I have all faith, so that I 
could remove mountains, and have 
not charity, I am nothing. 

8 And though I bestow all my goods 
to feed the poor, and though I give 
my body to be burned, and have 
not charity, it profiteth me nothing. 

4 Charity suffereth long, Mid is 
kind ; charity envieth not ; charity 
vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 

5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, 
eeeketh not her own, is not easUy 
provoked, thinketh no evil ; 

6 Eejoioeth not in iniquity, but re- 
joiceth in the truth.

came a man, I put away childish 
things. 

12 For now we see through a glass, 
darkly ; but then face to face : now 
I know in part; but then shall I 
know even as also I am kno\vn.

15 : 14 And if Christ be not risen, then is 
our preaching vain, and your faith 
is also vain. 

16 For if the dead rise not, then is 
not Christ raised : 

17 And if Christ be not raised, your 
faith is vain ; ye are yet in your 
sins. 

18 Then they also which are fallen 
asleep iu Christ are perished. 

19 If in this life only we have hope in 
Christ, we are of all men naost mis- 
erable. 

20 But now is Christ risen from the 
dead, and become the flrstfruits of 
them that slept.

26 For he must reign, till he hath put 
all enemies under his feet. 



26 The last enemy that shall be de- 
stroyed is death. 



28 And when all things shall be sub- 
dued unto him, then shall the Son 
also himself be subject unto him 
that put all things under him, that 
God may be all in all. 

81 I protest by your rejoicing which 
I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I 
die daily.

35 But some man will say, How are 
the dead raised up ? and with what 
body do they come ? 



42 So also is the resurrection of the 

dead. It is sown in corruption, it 

is raised in incorruption.

2 But have renounced the hidden 
things of dishonesty, not walking 
in craftiness, nor handling the word 
of God deceitfully; but by mani- 
festation of the truth, commending 
ourselves to every man's conscience 
in the sight of God.

shined in our hearts, to give the 
light of the knowledge of the glory 
of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 

7 But we have this treasure in 
earthen vessels, that the excellency 
of the power may be of God, and 
not of us. 

8 We are troubled on every side, yet 
not distressed; we are perplexed, 
but not in despair. 

13 We having the same spirit of faith, 
according as it is written, I believed, 
and therefore have I spoken ; we 
also beheve, and therefore speak.

10 For which cause we faint not ; but 
though our outward man perish, 
yet the inward Jiian is renewed day 
by day. 

17 For our light affliction, which is 
but for a moment, worketh for us 
a far more exceeding and eternal 
weight of glory ; 

IS While we look not at the things 
which are seen, but at the things 
which are not seen: forthethtogs 
which are seen are temporal ; but 
the things which are not seen are 
eternal.

his body, according to that ho hath 
done, whether it lie good or bad.

I trust also are made manifest in

: 16 Wherefore henceforth know we 
no man after the flesh : yea, though 
we have known Christ after the 
flesh, yet now henceforth know we 
hA.m no more. 
17 Therefore if any man 6e in Christ, 
he is a new creature : old things are 
passed away ; behold, all things are 
become new. 



18 And all things are of God, who 
hath reconciled us to himself by 
Jesus Christ, and hath given to us 
the ministry of reconciliation ; 

19 To wit, that God was in Chirist, 
reconciling the world unto himself 
not Imputing their trespasses unto 
them ; and hath committed unto us 
the word of reconciliation. 

20 Now then we are ambassadors for 
Christ, as though God did beseech 
you by us : we pray you in Christ's 
stead, be ye reconciled to God. 



21 For he hath made him to ie sin 
for us, who knew no sin ; that we 
might be made the righteousness 
of God in him.

of the law are under tlie curse : for 
It is written, Cursed is every one 
that continueth not in all things 
which are written in the book of 
the law to do them. 
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the 
curse of the law, being made a 
curse for us: for it is written, 
Cursed i3 every one that hangeth 
on a tree.

all under sin.

store Buch a one in tlie Bpirit of 
meekness ; considering thyself, lest 
thou also be tempted. 
2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and 
so fulfil the law of Christ. 



5 For every man shall bear his own 
burden. 

6 Let him that is taught in the word 
communicate unto him that teach- 
cth in all good things. 

7 Be not deceived ; God is not 
mocked: for whatsoever a man 
Boweth, that shall he also reap. 

8 For he that soweth to his flesh 
shall of the flesh reap corruption; 
but he that soweth to the Spirit 
shall of the Spirit reap life everlast- 
ing. 



9 And let us not be weary in well 
doing: for in due season we shall 
reap, if we faint not. 

10 As we have therefore opportunity, 
let us do good unto all men, es- 
pecially unto them who are of the 
household of faith. 

14 But God forbid that I should glory, 
save in the cross of our Lord Jesus 
Christ, by whom the world is cru- 
cified unto me, and I unto the

were dead in trespasses and sins ; 

2 Wherein in time past ye walked 
according to the course of this 
world, according to the prince of 
the power of the air, the spirit that 
now worketh in the children of dis- 
obedience : 



8 And were by nature the children 

of wrath, even as others. 
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, 

for his great love whereviith he 

loved us, 



5 Even when we were dead in sins, 
hath quickened us together with 
Christ, (by grace ye are saved.) 

T That in the ages to come he might 
shew the exceeding riches of his 
grace, in his kindness toward us, 
through Christ Jesus. 

8 For by grace are ye saved through 
faith ; and that not of yourselves : 
it is the gift of God : 

9 Not of works, lest any man should 
boast. 

10 For we are his workmanship, cre- 
ated in Christ Jesus unto good 
works. 

12 That at that time ye were without 
Christ, being aliens from the com- 
monwealth of Israel, and strangers 
from the covenants of promise, hav- 
ing no hope, and 'svithout God in the 
world : 



13 But now, in Christ Jesus, ye who 
sometime were far off are made 
nigh by the blood of Christ.

all saints what is the breadth, and 
length, and depth, and height ;

and have been taught by him, as 
the truth is in Jesus : 

22 That ye put off concerning the 
former conversation the old man, 
which is corrupt according to the 
deceitful lusts ; 

23 And be renewed in the spirit of 
your mind ; 

24 And that ye put on the new man, 
which after God is created in right-

God, whereby ye are sealed unto 
the day of redemption.

as dear children ;

hath loved us, and hath given him- 
self for us an offering and a s.ic-

was also in Christ Jesus ; 



6 Who, being in the form of God, 
thought it not robbery to be equal 
with God : 

7 But made himself of no reputa- 
tion, and took upon him the form 
of a servant, and was made in the 
likeness of men; ■ 

8 And being found in fashion as a 
man, he humbled himself, and be- 
came obedient unto death, even the 
death of the cross.

exalted him, and given Mm a name 
which is above every name : 



10 That at the name of Jesus every 
knee should bow, of things in 
heaven, and things in earth, and 
thiyigs under the earth ; 

11 And that every tongue should con- 
fess that Jesus Christ ^'s Lord, to 
the glory of God the Father.

; 18 For it Is God which worketh in 
you both to will and to do of his 
gxjod pleasure. 

15 That ye may be blameless and 
harmless, the sons of God, without 
rebulce, in the midst of a crooljed 
and perverse nation, amon? whom 
ye shine as lights in the world ; 

16 Holding forth the word of life; 
that I may rejoice in the day of 
Christ, that I have not run in vain, 
neither laboured in vain. 

20 For I have no man likeminded, 
who will naturally care for your 
Btate. 

21 For all seek their own, not the 
things which are Jesus Christ's. 



; 8 For we are the circumcision, which 
worship God in the spirit, and re- 
joice in Christ Jesus, and have no 
confidence in the flesh. 

8 Tea doubtless, and I count all 
things but loss for the e-vcellency 
of the knowledge of Christ Jesus 
my Lord: for whom I have suf- 

. fered the loss of all things, and do 
count them but dung, that I may 
win Christ. 

9 And be found in him, not having 
mine own righteousness, which is of 
the law. but that which is through 
the faith of Christ, the righteous- 
ness which is of God by faith : 

10 Tliat I may know him, and the 
power of his resurrection, and the 
fellowship of his sufferings, being 
made conformable unto his death. 

12 Not as though I had already at- 
tained, either were already perfect : 
but I follow after, if that I may ap- 
prehend that for which also 1 am 
apprehended of Christ Jesus. 

13 Brethren, I count not myself to 
have apprehended : but this one 
thing / do, forgetting those things 
which are behind, and reaching 
forth unto those things which are 
before, 

li I press toward the mark for the 
prize of the high calling of God in 
Christ Jesus.

18 (For many walk, of whom I have 
told you often, and now tell you 
even weeping, that they are the 
enemies of the cross of Christ : 

19 Whose end is destruction, whose 
God is their belly, and whose glory 
is in their shame, who mind earth- 
ly things.) 

20 For our conversation is in heaven ; 
from whence also we look for the 
Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ : 



21 Who shall change our vile body, 
that it may be fashioned like unto 
his glorious body, according to the 
working whereby he is able even to 
subdue all things unto himself.

1 : 5 Now the end of the commandment 
Is charity out of a pure heart, and 
of a good conscience, aud of faith 
unfeigned. 

8 But we know that the law is good, 
If a man use it lawfully. 

11 According to the glorious gospel 
of the blessed God, which was com- 
mitted to my trust. 

12 And I thank Christ Jesus our 
Lord, who hath enabled me, for 
that he counted me faithful, putting 
me into the ministry. 

13 
14 

15 This is a faithful saying, and wor- 
thy of all acceptation, that Christ 
Jesus came into the world to save 
sinners ; of whom I am chief. 

16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained 
mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ 
might shew forth all longsuifering, 
for a pattern to them which should 
hereafter believe on him to Ufe ever- 
lasting. 

17 Now unto the King eternal, im-

he honour and glory for ever and

1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, 
eupphcations, prayers, interces- 
sions, and ^ving of thanks, be 
made for all men ; 

2 For kings, and for all that are in 
authority ; that we may lead a quiet 
and peaceable life in all godhness 
and honesty. 



4 Who will have all men to bo saved, 
and to come unto the knowledge 
of the truth. 

5 For there is one God, and one 
mediator between God and men, 
the man Christ Jesus ; 

6 Who gave himself a ransom for 
all, to be testified in due time. 



10 But (which becometh women pro- 
fessing godliness) with good works. 

: 1 This is a tme saying. If a man 
desire the office of a bishop, he de- 
sireth a good work. 
4 Having his children in subjection 
with all gravity. 

14 These things write I unto thee, 
hoping to come unto thee shortly : 

15 But if I tarry long, that thou may- 
est know how thou oughtest to be- 
have thyself in the house of God, 
which is the church of the living 
God, the pillar and groimd of the 
truth. 

16 And without controversy great la 
the mystery of godliness : God was 
manifest in the flesh, justified in 
the Spirit, seen of angels, preached 
unto the Gentiles, believed on in 
tlie world, received up into glory.

dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, 
and thy mother Eunice ; and I am 
persuaded that in thee also.

taker of the afflictions of the gospel 
according to the power of God.

appearing of our Saviour Jesus 
Christ, who hath abolished death, 
and hath brought Ufe and immor-

6 And again, when ho bringeth in 
the flrstbegotten into the world, he 
saith, And let all the angels of God 
worship him. 

8 But unto the Son he saith. Thy 
throne, O God, « for ever and ever : 
a sceptre of righteousness is the 
sceptre of thy kingdom. 
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, 
sent forth to minister for them who 
shah be heirs of salvation ? 

: 8 How shall we escape, if we neglect 
80 great salvation ; which at" the 
first began to be spoken by the 
Lord, and was confirmed unto ua 
by them that heard him. 



7 Thou madest him a little lower 
than the angels; thou crownedst 
him with glory and honour, and 
didst set him over the works of thy 
hands. 

&-9 

10 For it became him, for whom are 
all things, and by whom are all 
things, in bringing many sons unto 
glory, to make the captain of their 
salvation perfect through sufferings. 

11 He is not ashamed to call them 
brethren. 

13 Behold I and the children which 

God hath given me. 
15 And deliver them, who through 

fear of death were all their lifetime 

subject to bondage.

saith. To-day if ye will hear his 
voice, 
6 Harden not your hearts, as in the

God, and the powers of the world 
to come,

1 Now faith is the substance of 
things hoped for, the evidence of 
things not seen. 



4 By faith Abel offered unto God a 
more excellent sacrifice than Cain, 
by which he obtained witness that 
he was righteous, God testifjang 
of his gifts: and by it he being 
dead yet speaketh. 



6 But without faith it is impossible 
to please Mm : for he that cometh 
to God must believe that he is, and 
that he is a rewarder of them that 
diligently seek him.

10 For he looked for a city which 
hath foundations, whose builder 
and maker ia God. 



13 These all died in faith, not having 
received the promises, but having 
seen them afar off, and were per- 
suaded of them, and embraced 
them., and confessed that they were 
Btrangera and pilgrims on the earth. 



14 For they that say such things de- 
clare plainly that they seek a coun- 
try. 

16 But now they desire a better couti- 
try, that is, a heavenly : wherefore 
God is not ashamed to be called 
their God : for he hath prepared 
for them a city. 

17-19 

22 

24 By faith Moses, when he was come 
to years, refused to be called the 
son of Pharaoh's daughter ; 

25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction 
with the people of God, than to 
enjoy the pleasures of sin for a 
season ; 

26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ 
greater riches than the treasures in 
Egypt : for he had respect unto the 
recompense of the reward. 

27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not 
■ fearing the wrath of the king : for 

he endured, as seeing him who is 
invisible.

14 Follow peace with all men, and 
holiness, without which no man 
shall see the Lord: 

15 Looking diligently lest any man 
fail of the grace of God ; lest any 
root of bitterness springing up trou- 
ble you, and thereby many be de- 
filed ; 

16 Lest there 6e any fornicator, or 
profane person, as Esau, who for 
one morsel of meat sold his birth- 
right. 

17 For ye know how that afterward, 
when he would have inherited the 
blessing, he was rejected: for he 
found no place of repentance, 
though he sought it carefully with 
tears.

ing God, the heavenly Jerusalem,

THEME OF DISCOUBSE. 



2 My brethren, count it all joy when 
ye fall into divers temptations; 

3 Knowing this, that the trying of 
your faith worketh patience. 

4 But let patience have her perfect 
work, that ye may be perfect and 
entire, wanting nothing. 

5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him 
ask of God, that giveth to all men 
liberally, and upbraideth not; and 
it shall be given him. 

6 But let him ask in faith, nothing 
wavering : for he that wavereth is 
like a wave of the sea driven with 
the wind and tossed. 

12 Blessed is the man that endureth 
temptation : for when he is tried, 
he shall receive the crown of life, 
which the Lord hath promised to 
them that love him. 

13 Let no man say when he is tempt- 
ed, I am tempted of God : for God 
cannot be tempted with evil, neither 
tempteth he any man : 

14 But every man is tempted, when 
he is drawn away of his own lust, 
and enticed. 

15 Then when lust hath conceived, it 
bringeth forth sin; and sin, when 
it is finished, bringeth forth death. 

17 Every good gift and every perfect 
gift is from above, and cometh 
down from the Father of lights, 
with whom is no variableness, nei- 
ther shadow of turning. 

18 Of his own will begat he us with 
the word of truth, that we should 
be a kind of firstfruits of his crea- 
tures. 

19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, 
let every man be swift to hear, slow 
to speak, slow to wr!»th. 

22 But be ye doers of the word, and 
not hearers only, deceiving your 
own selves. 

23 For if any be a hearer of the word, 
and not a doer, he is like unto a 
man beholding his natural face in a 
glass : 

24 For he beholdeth himself, and 
goeth his way, and stniightway for- 
getteth what manner of man he 
was. 

26 If any man among you seem to 
be religious, and bridleth not his 
tongue, but deceiveth his o\m heart, 
this man's religion is vain. 

27 Pure religion and undeflled before 
God and the Father is this, To visit 
the fatherless and -widows in their 
afliiction, and to keep himself un- 
spotted from the world.

10 For whosoever shall keep the whole 
law, and yet offend in one point, he 
is guilty of all. 

12 So speak yo, and so do, as they 
that shall be judged by the law of 
liberty. 

13 For he shall have judgment with- 
out mercy, that hath shewed no 
mercy ; and mercy rejoiceth against 
judgment.

18 Tea, a man may say, Thou hast 
faith and I have works : shew me 
thy faith without thy works, and 
I mil shew thee my faith by my 
works. 

19 Thou believest that there is one 
God ; thou doest well : the devils 
also believe, and tremble. 

20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, 
that faith without works is dead ? 

28 And the scripture was fulfilled 
which saith, Abraham believed God, 
and it was imputed unto him for 
righteousness : and he was called 
the Friend of God. 

24 Ye see then how that by works a 
man is justified, and not by faith 
only. 



26 For as the body without the spirit 
is dead, so faith without works is 
dead also. 

; 2 For in many things we offend all. 
If any man offend not in word, the 
same is a perfect man, a/nd able 
also to bridle the whole body. 

6 Even so the tongue is a little 
member, and boasteth great things. 
Behold, how great a matter a Uttle 
fire kindleth I 

6 And the tongue is a fire, a world 
of iniquity : so is the tongue among 
our members, that it defileth the 
whole body, and setteth on fire the 
course of nature ; and it is set on 
Are of hell.

1 From whence come wars and

not hence, even of your lusts that 
war in your members ? 

2 Ye lust, and have not : ye kill, and 
desire to have, and cannot obtain : 
ye fight and war, yet ye have not, 
because ye ask not. 

8 Ye ask, and receive not, because 
ye ask amiss, that ye may consume 
it upon your lusts. 

4 Ye adulterers and adultresses, 
know ye not that the friendship of 
the world is enmity with God? 
whosoever therefore will be a friend 
of the world is the enemy of God. 

T Submit yourselves therefore to 
God. Ecsist the devil, and he will 
flee from you. 

8 Draw nigh to God, and he will 
draw nigh to you. Cleanse your 
hands, ye sinners ; and purify your 
hearts, ye doubleminded.

6 And to knowledge, temperance ;

7 And to godliness, brotherly kind- 
ness; and to brotherly kindness, 
charity. 

10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, 
give diligence to make your calling 
and election sure : for if ye do these 
things, ye shall never fall : 



11 For so an entrance shall be minis- 
tered unto you abundantly into the 
everlasting kingdom of our Lord 
and Saviour Jesus Christ.

15 Moreover I will endeavour that 
ye may be able after my decease to 
have these things always in remem- 
brance. 

16 For we have not followed cunning- 
ly devised fables, when we made

19 We have also a more sure word of 
prophecy; whereunto ye do well 
that ye take heed, as unto a light 
that shineth in a dark place, until 
the day dawn, and the day-star 
arise in your hearts : 

20 Knowing this iirst, that no proph- 
ecy of the Scripture is of any pri- 
vate interpretation. 

21 For the prophecy came not in old 
time by the will of man : but holy 
men of God spake as they were 
moved by the Holy Ghost. 



: 5 And spared not the old world, but 
saved Noah the eighth person, a 
preacher of righteousness, bringing 
in the flood upon the world of the 
ungodly ; 
6 And turning the cities of Sodom 
and Gomorrah into ashes condemn- 
ed them with an overthrow, making 
them an ensample unto those that 
after should live ungodly. 
9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver 
the godly out of temptations, and 
to reserve the unjust unto the day 
of judgment to be punished. 

12 But these, as natural brute beasts, 
made to be taken and destroyed, 
speak evil of the things that they 
understand not ; and shall utterly 
perish in their own corruption. 

15 

19 While they promise them liberty, 
they themselves are the servants 
of corruption : for of whom a man 
is overcome, of the same is he 
brought in bondage.

8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of 
this one thing, that one day in with 
the Lord as a thousand years, and 
a thousand years as one day. 



9 The Lord is not slack concerning 
his promise, as some men count 
slackness; but is longsuffering to 
US-ward, not willing that any should 
perish, but that all should come to 
repentance. 

10 But the day of the Lord will come 
as a thief in the night ; in the which, 
the heavens shall pass away with a 
great noise, and the elements shall 
melt with fervent heat, the earth 
also and the works that are therein 
shall be burned up. 

11 Seeing then that all these things 
shall be dissolved, what manner of 
persona ought ye to be in all holy 
conversation and godliness ? 

13 Nevertheless we, according to his 
promise, look for new heavens and 
a new earth, wherein dwelleth 
righteovisness. 



14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that 
ye look for such things, be diligent 
that ye may be found of him in 
peace, without spot, and blameless. 

15 And account that the longsuffer- 
ing of our Lord is salvation ; even 
as our beloved brother Paul also 
according to the wisdom given unto 
him hath written unto you ; 

16 As also in all Ms epistles, speaking 
in them of these things ; in which 
are some things hard to be under- 
stood, which they that are unlearn- 
ed and unstable wrest, as they do 
also the other Scriptures, unto their 
own destruction.

AUTHOR. 



8 That which wo have seen and 
heard declare we unto you, that ye 
also may have fellowship with us: 
and truly our fellowship is with the 
Father, and with his Son Jesus 
Christ. 



4 And these things write we unto 
you, that your joy may be full. 

7 But if we wallc in the light, as ho 
is in the light, we have fellowship 

■ one with another, and the blood of 
Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us 
from all sin. 

7-10 

8 If we say that we have no sin, we 
deceive ourselves, and the truth is 
sot in us. 

9 If we confess our sins, he is faith- 
ful and just to forgive us our sins, 
and to cleanse us from all unright- 
eousness. 



1 My little children, these things 
write I unto you, that ye sin not. 
And if any man sin, we have an ad- 
vocate with the Father, Jesus Christ 
the righteous : 

2 And he is the propitiation for our 
sins: and not for ours only, but 
also for the sins Q/'the whole world. 



6 He that saith he abideth in him 
eight himself also so to walk, even 
as he waited. 

13 I write unto you, fathers, because 
ya have known him that is from 
the beginning. I write unto you, 
young men, because ye have over- 
come the wicked one. I write unto 
you, Uttle children, because ye have 
kno%vn the Father. 

14 I have written unto you, fathers, 
because ye have kno\vn him that is 
from the beginning. I have writ- 
ten unto you, young men, because 
ye are strong, and the word of God 
abideth in you, and ye have over- 
come the wicked one. 



15 Love not the world, neither the 
things that are in the world. If 
any man love the world, the love of 
the Father is not in him. 

17 And the world passeth away, and 
the lust thereof: but he that doeth 
the will of God abideth for ever. 

13 Little children, it is the last time: 
and as ye have heard that antichrist 
shall come, even now are there 
many antichrists; whereby we 
know that it is the last time. 

19 They went out from us, but they 
were not of us ; for if they had been 
of ns, they would no doubt have 
continued with us : but they went 
out, that they might be made mani- 
fest that they were not all of us. 

20 iiut ye have an unction from the 
Holy One, and ye know all things.

AUTHOR. 



2 Beloved, now are we the sons of 
God, and it doth not yet appear 
what we shall be : but we know 
that, when he shall appear, we shall 
be like him ; for we shall see him 
as he is. 



3 And every man that hath this hope 
in him purifieth himself^ even as he 
is pure. 



4 Whosoever coramitteth sin trans- 
gresseth also the law: for sin is the 
transgression of the law. 



5 And ye know that he was mani- 
fested to take away our sina ; and 
in him is no sin. 

9 "Whosoever is born of God doth 
not commit sin ; for his seed re- 
maineth in him : and he cannot sin, 
because he is born of God. 
10 In this the children of God are 
manifest, and the children of the 
devil : whosoever doeth not right- 
eousness is not of God, neither he 
that loveth not his brother. 

14 "We know that we have passed 
from death unto life, because we 
love the brethren. He that loveth 
not his brother abideth in death. 

15 "Whosoever hateth his brother is a 
murderer: and ye know that no 
murderer hath eternal life abiding 
in him. 

20 For if our heart condemn us, God 
is greater than our heart, and know- 
eth all things. 

21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us 
not, then have we confidence tow- 
ard God.

9 In this was manifested the love of 
God toward us, because that God 
sent his only begotten Son into the 
world, that we might live through 
him. 

10 Herein is love, not that we loved 
God, but that he loved us, and sent 
his Son to be the propitiation for 
our sins. 

16 And we have known and believed 
the love that God hath to us. God 
is love ; and he that dwelleth in 
love dwelleth in God, and God In

1 Whosoever believeth that .Tesus 
is the Christ is born of God : and 
every one that loveth him that be- 
gat loveth him also that is begotten 
of him. 

8 For this is the love of God, that 
we keep his commandments: and 
his commandments are not griev- 
ous. 

4 For whatsoever is bom of God 
overeometh the world : and this is 
the victory that overeometh the

5 Who is he that overeometh the

Jesus is the Son of God f 

7 For there are three that bear rec- 
ord [in heaven, the Father, the 
Word, and the Holy Ghost : and 
these three are one.

three agree in one.

9 If we receive the witness of men, 
the witness of God is greater: for 
this is the ^vitness of God which he 
hath testified of his Son. 

10 He that believeth on the Son of 
God hath the witness in himself: 
he tliat believeth not God hatli 
made Iiim a liar ; because he believ- 
eth not the record that God gave 
of bis Son. 

11 And this is the record, that God 
hath given to us eternal life, and 
this life is in his Son. 

12 He that hath the Son hath hfe; 
and he that hath not the Son of 
God hath not life. 

14 And this is the confidence that we 
have in him, that, if we ask any 
thing according to his will, he hear- 
eth us. 

16 If any man see his brother sin a 
sin w/iich is not unto death, he 
shall ask, and he shall give him life 
for them that sin not unto death. 
There is a sin unto death : I do not 
eSy that he shall pray for it. 

30 And we know that the Son of God 
Is come, and hath given us an un- 
derstanding, that we may know 
him that is true ; and we are in 
him that is true, even in his Son 
Jesus Clirist. This is the true God, 
and eternal life.

3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence 
to write imto you of the common 
salvation, it was needful for me to 
write unto you, and exhort you that 
ye should earnestly contend for the 
faith which was once deUvered un- 
to the saints. 

6 And the angels which kept not 
their first estate, but left their own 
habitation, he hath reserved in ever- 
lasting chains under darkness unto 
the judgment of the great day. 

11 Woe unto them I for they have 
gone in the way of Cain, and ran 
greedily after the error of Balaam 
for reward, and perished in the 
gainsaying of Core. 

12 These are spots in your feasts of 
charity, when they feast with you, 
feeding themselves without fear. 

14 And Enoch also, the seventh from 
Adam, prophesied of these, saying. 
Behold, the Lord cometh with ten 
thousands of his saints, 

15 To execute judgment upon all, 
and to convince all that are ungod- 
ly among them of all their ungodly 
deeds which they have ungodly 
committed, and of all their hard 
speeches which ungodly sinners 
have spoken against him.

) Behold, I stand at the door, and 
knock : it' any man hear my voice, 
and open the door, I will como in 
to him, and will sup with him, and 
he with me. 



21 To him that overcometh will I 
grant to sit with me in my throne, 
even as I also overcame, and am 
set down with my Father in his 
throne. 

; 1 After this I looked, and, behold, a 
door waa opened in heaven. 
2,8,5 

8 ITiere was a rainbow round about 
the throne, in sight like unto an 
emerald. 

8 And the four beasts had each of 
them six wings about him ; and 
they were full of eyes within : and 
they rest not day and night, saying. 
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Al- 
mighty, which was, and is, and is 
to come. 
10 



: 6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst 
of the throne and of the four beasts, 
and in the midst of the elders, stood 
a Lamb as it had been slain, having 
seven horns and seven eyes, which 
are the seven Spirits of God sent 
forth into all the earth. 

8 The four beasts and four and 
twenty elders fell down before the 
Lamb, having every one of them 
harps, and golden vials full of 
odours, which are the prayers of 
saints. 

9 And they sung a new song, say- 
ing, .... Thou wast slain, and 
hast redeemed us to God by thy 
blood out of every kiodred, and 
tongue, and people, and nation. 

11-14 

12 Sajong with a loud voice, TVorthy 
Is the Lamb that was slain to re- 
ceive power, and riches, and wis- 
dom, and strength, and honour, and 
glory, and blessing. 

; 2 And he went forth conquering, and 
to conquer. 
9 I saw under the altar the souls of 
them that were slain for the word 
of God, and for the testimony which 
they held : 

10 And they cried with a loud voice, 
saying, How long, Lord, holy and 
true . . . . f 

11 And white robes were given unto 
every one of them ; and it was said 
unto them, that they should rest 
yet for a little season, until their 
fellow servants also and their breth- 
ren, that should be killed as they 
were, should be fulfilled. 

: 9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great 
multitude, which no man could 
number, of all nations, and kin- 
dreds, and people, and tongues, 
stood before the throne, and before 
the Lamb, clothed with white robes, 
and palms in their hands ; 

10 And cried with a loud voice, say- 
ing, Salvation to our God which 
sitteth upon the throne, and unto 
the Lamb. 

14 These are they which came out of 
great tribulation, and have washed 
their robes, and made them white 
in the blood of the Lamb.

APPEKDIX I. 



TEXTS FROM TEE OLD TESTAMENT EMPLOYED BY WRITERS AND 
SPEAKERS IN THE NEW. 



It will be noticed by the learned scbolar that some of these texts appear to have been 
taken, by those who used them, directly from the Hebrew Scriptures ; others from the Greek 
Septuagint, with which they more nearly agree ; and others are referred to in a general way, 
without any attempt to quote the exact language of either version ; and others still appear to 
have been " accommodated " to the writer's purpose, and used out of their original sense. 
Hence, while some of these citations will be found to agree more or less exactly with our pres- 
ent version in expression, and others to agree in sentiment though not in words, there are 
others in which the agreement will be recognized with diflSculty. There are still a few others 
which are too vague to be identified at all, and are therefore omitted from this list.

Luke, 

John, 

and "Acts." 



The first three 
Gospels, and 
the Epistles of

are written dur- 
ing this period, 
from 38-68. 



John. 



Acts written 
by Luke, 64. 

Three Epistles

The Biblical 
History f orm.ally 
ends with Acts,

near the end of

Minor, and is again 

(68) Imprisoned at Rome and there executed ; and, soon after, Peter is 
said to have been crucified there during the first persecution 
under Nero. 

CZO) Jerusalem is besieged under Vespasian, by his son Titus ; is taken, 
and the Temple destroyed. During this dreadful confiict 
2,000,000 Jews are said to have perished, but all the Chris- 
tians escaped. 

(81) Second persecution, under Domitian. 

Notwithstanding these persecutions Christianity gains strength, 
and disciples are multiplied. 



John, the last of the Apostles living, is banished to Patmos, where 
he writes the Book of Revelation. After his release, he 
writes the Gospel of John, and, not long after, dies — perhaps 
the only one of all the Apostles — a natural death, aged about 
100 years. 

The third persecution begins under Trajan.

PART SECOND: TOPICAL. 



EXPLANATORY NOTE. 

The arrangement of the following themes is simply alphabetic. The systematic or syn- 
thetic method employed in many of the treasuries and collections of texts and topics, by 
which they are in the first instance referred to certain general heads, as " God," " Christ," 
"Gospel," "Man," "Church," etc., and then divided and subdivided again and again with a 
separate alphabetic arrangement for each, is often more confusing than no arrangement at all. 
Perhaps no method, with such a variety of kindred themes, would give results entirely satis- 
factory. The method here adopted is certainly intelligible. The cardinal word, if there 
be one, in each theme is placed first, with as little change in the structure of the sentence as 
possible ; and then these themes are made to follow each other in the order of the alphabet. 
If there be several words of equal prominence, the theme is occasionally repeated under each 
of them, as in the concordance, but this could not often be done without too much increasing 
the size of the volume. If, therefore, the reader should not find the themes he desires under 
one word, he will please look for it under another. Themes that are too prolix have some- 
times been abbreviated. In nothing do writers more differ than in the number of words they 
require to state their points. When several discourses (seriatim or otherwise) by the same 
author upon a particular topic are cited, they are often classed together, and the subordinate 
alphabetical arrangement is disregarded as not of sufficient importance to be retained at the 
expense of separating them. 

The references to texts and to authors a/re given much more briefly in this than in the Textual 
Index, and, if any one desires further information respecting them, he may find it there. But, 
under not a few of the more important topics in this part, it has been found practicable to cite 
many authors whose names do not appear in the other part, particularly those whose writings 
are topical rather than textual, and authors of serial discourses. For example, a writer upon 
any one particular miracle or parable is there referred to in the text under the passage of 
which he treats ; but writers who have handled all of them in course are, to save the too 
frequent repetition of their names, referred to, once for all, only in the Topical Index, under 
the head "Miracles," or "Parables," etc., as the case may be. 

A large classified list of texts on certain general topics, without any reference to authors 
who have discussed them, may be found in the Appendix Fo. 3. 

N. B. — References to texts, volumes, and authors a/re more full and definite in the Textual 
Index, q. v.

END OP TOPICAL INDEX. 



APPEKDIX III. 



Mankind, as endowed with a twofold nature, are represented in the Scriptnres as acted 
upon in this world by two antagonistic forces or influences, the one tending to elevate, purify, 
and save, and the other to degrade, pollute, and destroy. 

Christ the Saviour is represented as being the Source or Head of the former, and Satan 
the Destroyer of the latter. And so all men are spoken of as divided into two great classes, 
the Good and the Bad, according as they yield to and follow the one or the other. 

The various titles, epithets, and metaphors employed in speaking of these two classes, with 
their respective heads, to designate them and to describe their opposite characteristics, char- 
acters, and destinies, are as f oUows :

APPENDIX lY. 



BIBLICAL WORKS. 



It will be observed that tbe foregoing Index of Texts, Themes, and Authors is strictly 
homiletical. It was originally proposed to give, at the head of each section, a somewhat full, 
though select, descriptive list of other Biblical works upon the particular portion of Scripture 
under consideration, and to preface the whole with a list of works in general upon the Bible. 
But, in order to reduce the size of the present volume to its smallest practicable dimensions, 
this purpose was abandoned after much of the material had been collected and arranged ; and 
the notices of works other than those devoted to brief texts and themes founded thereon were 
suppressed. 

Many of these works of a topical character will be found referred to {in loco) in the Topical 
Index. A condensed and greatly abbreviated list of other general works, for which no room 
could be afforded in the Textual Index, is herewith appended, for the convenience of those

Every one that reads, every one that mingles in society, is constantly meet- 
ing with allusions to subjects on which he needs and desires further information. 
In conversation, in trade, in professional life, on the farm, in the family, practi- 
cal questions are continually arising which no man, well read or not, can always 
satisfactorily answer. Hence the need of a cyclopsedia, embracing every con- 
ceivable subject, and having its topics alphabetically arranged. In this way the 
matter in question is found at once, digested, condensed, stripped of all that is 
irrelevant, and verified by a comparison of the best authorities. Only men of 
fortune can collect a library complete in all the departments of knowledge ; but 
a cyclopffldia, worth in itself, for purposes of reference, at least a thousand vol- 
umes, is within the reach of all. In a country like ours, where the humblest 
may be called to responsible positions requiring intelligence and general infor- 
mation, the value of such a work cannot be over-estimated. 

The American Cyclopedia presents a panoramic view of all human knowl- 
edge as it exi.sts at the present moment. It embraces and popularizes every sub- 
ject that can be thought of, containing an inexhaustible fund of accurate and 
practical information on Art and Science, including Mechanics, Mathematics, 
Astronomy, Philosophy, Chemistry, and Physiology ; on Agriculture, Commerce, 
and Manufactures; on Law, Medicine, and Theology; on Biography and His- 
tory, Geography and Ethnology ; on Political Economy, the Trades, Inventions, 
Politics, the Things of Common Life, and General Literature. No topic, in short, 
is omitted upon which information can be desired. The work is a complete uni- 
versal instructor, and opens to the student and general reader the whole field of 
knowledge.

In 2 vols. Price, $8.00. 



From Dr. Delitzsch, the Commentator. 
"A work of gigantic industry, noble iu outveard form, of the highest rank in its con- 
tents, and, what is the chief point, it breathes the spirit of true faith in Christ. I have 
read enough of it to rejoice at such a magnificent creation, and especially to wonder at 
the extent of reading it shows. When I shall have occasion to revise my Hebrew New 
Testament, I hope to get much help from it." 

From Bishop Beckwith, of Georgia. 
"The book is of value not merely to the theological student or student of history, but 
the family. It furnishes information which every one should possess, and which thought- 
ful people will be glad to gain from so agreeable a teacher." 

From Br. John Hall. 
" The author has aimed at producing a book of continuous, easy narrative, in which 
the reader may, as far as possible, see the Saviour of men live and move, and may hear 
the words he utters with the most vivid attainable idea of his circumstances and surround- 
ings. The result is a work to which all Christian hearts wiU respond." 

From Bishop Littlejohn, of Long Island. 
" Dr. Geikie has performed his task — the most difficult in biographical literature — 
with great ability. His pages evince abundant and accurate learning, and, what is of 
even more consequence, a simple and cordial faith in the Gospel narratives. The more 
the work shall circulate, the more it will be regarded as a most valuable addition to a 
branch of sacred literature which ought in every age to absorb the best fruits of sacred 
scholarship, and to command the highest gifts of human genius." 

From Rev. Dr. Adams, President of the Union Theological Seminary. 
"Another invaluable contribution in proof of historical Christianity. It is a beautiful 
specimen of typography, and we anticipate for it an extensive circulation, to which it is 
entitled for its substantial worth, its erudition, its brilliant style, and its fervent devotion." 

From the Rev. W. Lindsay Alexander, D. D., S. T. P., Edinburgh, Member of the Old 
Testament Company of Revision, Editor of Kitto's " Cyclcpcedia of Biblical Literature," 
etc. 
"Dr. Geikie's work is the result of much thought, research, and learning, and it is 

adorned with many literary excellences. It cannot fail to become a standard, for its 

merits are substantial, and its utility great." 

From the Rev. Dr. Curry. 
"A careful examination of Dr. Geikie's work seems to prove, what might before have 
been doubted, that just such a work was needed to meet a real want ; it successfully in- 
dicates its own right to be, by responding to the necessity that it discovers."'

OPimOMS OF THE PRESS. 

" These fresh volumes are marked throughout by a humane and devout spirit. The 
work is sure to make for itself a place in popular literature." — New York Times. 

" In Dr. Geikie's volumes the person and works of Christ receive the chief attention, 
of course; but the background is so faithfully and vividly drawn that the reader is given 
a fresher idea of the central figure." — New York Independent. 

" A monument of industry and a mine of learning. The students of our theological 
colleges, ministers, and others, will find much of the information here given of great 
worth and novelty." — Konconformht. 

" Dr. Geikie's paraphrases are generally most excellent commentaries. 

" An encyclopa8dia upon the life and times of Jesus Christ, but an encyclopaedia which 
has an organic unity, pulsating with a true and devout spirituality of thought and feeling." 
— London Christian World. 

" His style is always clear, rising sometimes into majestic beauty. His most steady 
point of view is the relation of Christ to the elevation of the race, and he struggles to 
make clear the amazing richness of Christ's new things — the profound character of his 
philosophy, and the practical humanity that wells up out of these great deeps." — New 
York Methodist. 

" The ' Life of Christ ' may be fitly compared to a diamond with many facets. From 
every point of view, the light that streams forth upon us is beneficent. No two observers 
will probably ever catch precisely the same ray, but, for all who look with unclouded eye 
(whatever their angle of vision may be), there shines forth 'the light of the glory of God 
in the face of Jesus Christ.' Without disparaging in any sense the noble hibors of his 
predecessors, we think Dr. Geikie has caught a new ray from the ' Mountain of Light,' 
and has added a new page to our Christology which many will delight to read." — New 
York Eiangelist. 

"The chief merit of Dr. Geikie's volumes lies in the attention paid to the surround- 
ings of our Saviour's earthly life ; so that the reader is presented with a picture of the 
Jewish people, national characteristics, social customs, and religious belief and ritual. 

" It is with reluctance that we lake leave of these splendid volumes, for it is an enjoy- 
ment to examine and a pleasant duty and privilege to commend them. We feel sure we 
could desire no more valuable and useful addition to Christian libraries." — Episcopal 
Recorder (Philadelphia). 

"If any one desires a reliable and intelligent guide in the study of the Gospel history, 
he cannot, we think, do better than take the graphic pages of Dr. Geikie. The American 
edition is got up most elegantly ; the binding is very handsome, the paper good, the type 
large and clear, the engravings and maps are excellent. They are, indeed, two beautiful 
volumes." — Evangelical Churchman (Toronto). 

" Of all that has been written hitherto on that life, nothing seems to us to equal in 
beauty that which we find in the two magnificent volumes before us. They bring to 
view the social conditions in which Jesus made his appearance. They give us a vivid 
portraiture of those who were about him — both the friends and the enemies — the parties, 
the customs, the influences that prevailed." — Episcopal Register (Philadelphia.)

A COMPREHENSIVE 

DICTIONARY OF THE BIBLE: 

Being a Revised and much Enlarged Edition of Dr. William 
Smith's Dictionary of the Bible. 

EDITED BY 

Rev. SAMUEL W. BARNUM, M. A. 

EMBELLISHED WITH MANY HUNDRED WOODCUTS, INCLUDING MAPS, 
PLANS OE CITIES, ILLUSTRATIONS OF MANNERS, CUSTOMS, Etc. 

Complete in 1 vol., large 8vo. Cloth, $§.00; Sheep, $6.00; 
Half Morocco, $7.SO. 



Dr. Smith's Dictionary of the Bible, published in 1860-63, and containing, in its three 
large octavo volumes, nearly 3,200 pages, is a work of acknowledged excellence ; but its 
size, cost, and scholarly character, must prevent any extensive circulation of it among the 
great mass of those who desire and need a Dictionary of the Bible. The " Comprehen- 
sive Dictionary," owes its origin to a settled conviction, on the part of the Editor and 
Publishers, of the need of such a modified abridgment of the original work as should 
make the results of modern scholarship generally accessible. 

The editor, Rev. Samuel W. Barnum, M. A., is well known among the graduates of 
Yale College as an accurate and thorough scholar. His experience in 1845-'4V, as the 
principal assistant of the late Prof Goodrich, in the revision of Webster's Dictionary (un- 
abridged and royal octavo editions), made him familiar with the details of lexicography ; 
and his subsequent labors as an official expounder of the Scriptures gave him a practical 
acquaintance with the wants of the people in the field of Biblical knowledge. 

The General Principles which have guided in the preparation of the present work 
have been : 

I. To make everything intelligible to those who understand only English, and to place 
them as nearly as possible on a level with the scholars who are familiar with the original 
language of the Scriptures. 

II. To condense the greatest possible amount of valuable information into one volume 
of convenient size and moderate cost. 

III. To guard against all influences hostile to Christian faith and love. 

The page is somewhat larger than that of Smith's Dictionary, and the type of a heavier 
face, and more easily read. No pains have been spared to make the mechanical execu- 
tion accurate and beautiful.

THE 

BIBLE READERS' COMMENTARY. 

THE NEW TESTJlMENT, 

IN TWO VOIiUUES. 
VOL. I. 

THE FOURFOLD GOSPEL: 

A Consolidation of the Four Gospels in one Chronological Narrative ; with 
the Text arranged in Sections; with Brief Readings and Conaplete An- 
notations, selected from "the Choice and Best Observations" of nnore 
than T'wo Hundred Eminent Christian Thinkers of the Past and Pres- 
ent. 

With Illustrations, Maps, and Diagrams. 

PREP ABED BT 

J. GLENTWORTH BUTLER, D. D. 



This is a Life of Christ, wherein the words of the inspired Biographers are woven 
into a consecutive, complete story, and accompanied with select thoughts from garnered 
studies of the wise and devout that have sought to interpret that story. It is prepared, 
not for reference, but for continuous reading or study : to meet the needs of the large 
class of intelligent persons who have neither time nor taste for extended statements or 
discussions, and who desire mature thoughts set in few and acceptable words. 

A special feature of this volume is the single continuous narrative constructed out of 
the Foiir Gospels, giving a complete and connected view of our Lord's life and ministry. 
In this narrative is faithfully incorporated every word and phrase of each Gospel, or else 
its equivalent or concurrent expression in another, and no words are added to those 
found in the Gospel. 

The distinctive points of the volume are : its substance, comprising select portions of 
the most valuable thought contained in the entire literature of the New Testament ; the 
completeness of (he comment, including the explanation of the sense, the exposition of the 
spirit, and all the related facts of history and incident ; (he convenience of arrange- 
ment, by which all that bears upon the text is brought into direct connection with it 
(thus avoiding the recurrence to other volumes of commentary or cyclopaedia) ; and, as a 
real though minor advantage, the attractive variety in the subject-matter and style.

" These works embody the results of much research, and elucidate the text of Sacred Scripture with 
.idaiirable force and simplicity. The learned professor, having deroted many years to the close and 
devout study of the Bible, seems to have become thoroug-hly furnished with all needful material to pro- 
duce a useful and trustworthy commentary."— JV. Y. Christian Intelligencer 

Dr. Leonard Bacon, of Yale College, Dr. S. Wolcott, of Cleveland. Ohio, and President E. B. Fairfield, of 
Hillsdale College, among many other authorities, concur in eulogizing the sound scholarship and practical 
and devotional spirit of these "Notes;" and President Fairfieli adds: "The comraentarv meets a want 
which has long been felt ; " and further, that the " Propl-.cts. who have constituted a sealed boot to a large 
part of the ministry as well as the people, are now relieved of all lack of interest to common readers." 

" We do not know," says a writer ra Bibliotheca Sacra, " where else ' both pastors and people' can 
And so much judicious comment on the Apocalypse within so brief a space." 

Speaking of the Psalms, the Congregatlonalist says : " The sweet singers of Israel have found in Dr. 
Cowles as congenial and at a commentator as ever, in anv langua-re or countrv, undertook that useful 
service." 

" With regard to the Pentateuch, the Churchman observes : " For actuallv meeting the wants of most 
readers of the Pentateuch, we know of no better book." 

" Another welcome volume," says the Interior, "from an author who has done more than any man of 
his generation to attract attention to the study of the Old Testament. Dr. Cowles is destined to he read 
for many generations to come. His 'Hebrew History' is a book of absorbing and often of fascinating 
interest." 

Tlie Nashniile Christian Advocate remarks: "One may feel safe in purchasing any commentary 
from the pen of Dr. Cowles. No student of the Scriptures should be without his commentaries ; they are 
so concise, judicious, and spiritual." 

" Prof. Cowles," says the Haiiford Heligicus Herald. " closes his commentaries on the Old Testa- 
ment with the book of Job, and he has enriched his work with a new translation of it. Mr. Froude has 
shown, in one of his finest essays, how valuable is the study of Job, and how broad the light which it 
throws over the ancient philosophy. Prof Cowles has met the want which Fronde's readers will require 
in penetrating the meaning of this subtile and profound work."

NOTES 



Miracles of Our Lord. 

By RICHARD CHENEVIX TRENCH, D. D. 

1 vol., 8vo, cloth, $2.S0. 

" We have nothing in the English language on this subject comparalile in elaborateness and critical 
value to this work of Dr. Trench. Difficulties are met and cleared away with a readiness that shows 
familiarity, not only with the records themselves, but with the almost infinite theological controversies to 
which they have given rise. Dr. Trench is lamiUar, too, with the productions of German theologians, and 
makes good use ot them, now by confuting them, now by adducing their testimony in support of his 
own views. 

'• The miracles treated o! are thirty-three in number, commencing with the ' Water made Wine at 
Cana,' and concluding with the second ' Miraculous Draught of Kishes.' Prefixed to the main body of the 
work is a ' Preliminary Essay on Miracles,' in which the author discourses in an interesting and masterly 
manner on their names, thiir nature, their authority, the evangelical compared with other cycles of mira- 
cles, assaults on them, and their apologetic worlh. 

•• It is a work of great learning, evincing also much thought and reflection. He draws very largely 
from the Fathers of the Church, both for his opinions and elucidations. The style is clear and nervous, 
and the writer's mind seems to have been fully and intensely occupied with his subject. In the amount 
ol mcelligence he has condensed and communicated in this volume, he has been of great assistance to the 
lovers of sacred lure, and the subject which he has chosen for discussion is of so imposing a character as 
to command in his readers their Axed attention and interest. 

"To the full understanding of the New Testament such a treatise as this would seem necessary, and 
the book has proved a welcome aid to the biblical student, the Sunday-school teacher, and the general 
reader."

" Note" on the Parables " was first published in 1841— five years before the " Notes on Miracles "—and 
has pone through inanv edition.^. The work is free from all that is dull, heavy, and commonplace, and 
the authors beautiful and forcible style would alone commend it to general favor. Dr. Trench hns long 
since acquired a (insition in the first "rank, not onlv of theologians, but of men of letters ; all his produc- 
tions are marked by fine taste and severe logic. In aptness of illustration, ripeness of scholarship, and 
feliritousness in interesting his readers, he has few compeers. "JS'otes on the Parables," as one of hi.s 
earlier theological works, gave abimdant evidence of the characteristics which will sustain his reputation 
as from a fullness of knowledge "one speaking with authority" for generations to come.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 

" Mr. White possesses in a high decree the power of epitomizing— that facnitj- which enahles him to 
distill the essence from a mass offsets, and to condense it in description; a battle, siege, or other remark- 
able event, which, without his skill, might occupy a chapter, is compressed within the compass of a page 
or two, and this without the sacrifice of any feature essential or significant."— Ceniifry. 

"Mr. White has been very happv in touching upon the salient points in the historj- of each century of 
the Christian era, and yet has avoided making his work a mere bald analysis or chronological table."- 
Providence Journal. 

" In no single volume of English literature can so satisfying and clear an idea of the historical charac- 
ter of these eighteen centuries be obtained." — Horns Journal. 

" In this volume we have «e iest epitome of ChrUtian history extant. This is high praise, but at 
the same time it isjmt. The author's pecuh.w success is in making the great points and facts of history 
stand out in sharp relief His style may be said to be stereoscopic, and the efiTect is exceedingly impres- 
sive." — Providence Press.
